We need more new users like you! Folks that maintain a positive outlook and realize we're trying to help not hinder. Taking advice is easy, gracefully turning it down is rarer and rarer. Kudos on a good attitude. You're okay in my book. :cheers:

Thanks for the kind words guys.
I ended up selling the entire cab. it kind of escalated from trying to sell the working monitor and cpo, to the monitor breaking (needs a new flyback), to the guy being interested in all of the boards too... and i realized i didnt feel like getting inside with that smell, and taking all the boards out... and then i remembered what I've really always wanted was a showcase cabinet...
SO! the project has been re-worked quite a bit. It will be a pedestal arcade until such time as I have a basement, at which point it will become a full-fledged showcase cabinet (plans here). Plus the larger control panel will enable me to more comfortably fit the controls. The art will have to be reworked. Same controls per player as before but obviously more space between and in more accessible positions.
I already got the MDF and got it cut, although due to some error will have to re-cut the sides of the control panel box. CP is drilled, I will have pictures soon.
Should I keep this thread going, or start a new one?

If it's going to be a completely new cab / build, I vote start a new thread. :cheers:
