Hey boys and girls ive been wanting get a cab going for at least a year now. I live in a 3 bedroom apartment with my wife and her/our 9 year old daughter in Ct. I am lucky enough to have a awesome dad who is extremely talented with wood working. I on the other hand can barely use a tape measurer :dunno . Now with us having a spare bedroom and its basically a storage room/drunk tank. And with me and some of my buddys getting into drunken mario kart contest's among other games. I thought it would be a fun addition to the house. I was able to get a gutted Pole Position cab from DeLuSioNal29 today :notworthy: and the gears are in motion. My pops has never worked on a arcade machine and im pretty sure the last game he played was probably Pac Man a gazillion years ago lol. Im going to handle the software end and ill attempt to help him out as much as possible with the woodworking. I plan on running a X gaming dual stick or possibly a tank stick if i have the extra money. But first things first I gotta situate the tiny bit of rot on the bottom corners, the top however is in good shape.
Ive started a album for this project in Picasa...not sure if I should upload photos here or just link them thou
UPDATE 2/25/2013..im just about done..thanks to everyone here for help..thanks to DeLuSioNal29 for selling the cab for a great price and throwing in the monitor :notworthy: . And thanks to Drnick for helping me out with Hyperspin via PMs :notworthy:

Best to upload here. That way, they'll be around as long as this site's around. POsting links almost always ends up with dead links.
And Welcome Aboard!

I think if I like how this comes out ill do another one down the road. I wanted to try to start with a cab already made so I have a clue on what im working with since I dont know a single soul who has one of these.
