33 inch showcase cab: MAME?
quadrider1:
Scored a nice 33 inch showcase cab for free with working monitor and two player control panel. Should I mame it or just throw a xxx in 1 board like a blue elf?
Also does anyone know if its posible to convert an airsoft gun into a light gun with recoil?
Whats your thoughts.

those things are huge. What I did with mine is I threw away the entire monitor section and just kept the CP section I then put all my MAME guts in there and pushed it up against a wall. Then I mounted a flat screen monitor on the wall. This way you get a full size Arcade CP that only takes up approx 2 feet of your room ;)

Aw yes thats exactly what i did with the other podium, he had two show cases but one was all mesed up so i took the control panel and did exactly that. Looking just to fix and resell since i dont have the room for this monster. lol Just dont know what the best way to go about it.

Make sure you can sell it first. The market in my neck of the woods is awful. If it's currently working, how about put a game in it that people would like more and sell it like that for a few hundred.
