While we're looking at a pic of a "real" arcade cabinet, I wish mine had speakers behind the ears in the chair. That's really the one thing I'm missing.
The handbrake looks like something could fabricate honestly. Do you have a picture of the insides of that thing?

I'll upload some tonight for you. It's a basic microswitch inside with some rubber stops to give it feeling.
Edit: there's actually a picture of it cracked open in the thread badmouth linked too. That's probably the only one I have of it. I really don't want to take it apart unless you guys really need to see it.

I saw those, thank you! Can I ask for some external measurements of the "box", and length of the handle?
I really think I can make this from scratch - it looks crazy easy. I've even got access to a MIG welder, that I'm fairly decent with. The only tricky part is the "resistance" rubber stop - but that shouldn't be hard to replicate.
And yes, if I build one of these, I can build more than one. :) I like the idea of steel because the e-brake is something you're going to YANK on - its going to take some amount of abuse.

Keep us posted.... I'm curious to see how it turns out.
