My first multi arcade cabinet (Update) Vertical Conversion
Baldark:
Thanks for the reply. Now I just have to find a decent spot to put it.

The way I setup dual sticks for the same player was simple, wire the UDLR to both but wire the ground to a toggle switch. Pretty much insures no one can mess with it while you are playing... plus its great when little kids want to "play" the game while you are playing.

the way you can do this on mame its by hiting the tab key and setup the keys you want for player one, you can set multiple keys on one device, and the cool thing, you can even set keys only for the games you want or the whole collection

It's too bad that I don't have the skills or even the tools to make my own. Whenever I start a new project, it'll probably be from another empty cabinet that someone on craigslist is selling/getting rid of. I want to get a vertical cabinet.
Baldark:
I decided to turn this cabinet into a dedicated vertical cabinet and dumping the tankstick all together. The only problem I have now is trying to figure out the control panel. I searched online for what the dimensions are for the Phoenix Cabinet and can only get pictures. The centuri website said it was a type B control panel, but it doesn't offer the exact measurements. Here is a picture.

If I can't find one to buy, might might have to make one myself.
Do any of you guys know what the dimensions are?
