I'll use this as my introduction post as it's my first. 

We sold our townhouse and bought a house with an unfinished basement.  That means work on planning a mancave playroom can begin, which also means I have started thinking about a MAME cabinet.  Just joined the board and doing some prelim research for now but think I will tackle the project over the winter since in Calgary there are enough cold days to hunker down on inside projects.

I'm thinking of a stand-up cabinet with 27" LED monitor and CP with 2 joysticks and 6 buttons plus a trackball and a few admin buttons.  Since this will be my first and hopefully not last build I figured I'd start fairly basic.  Next cab might be 32" with 4 player controls but we'll see how this first one goes.  I have access to my fathers workshop that has all the woodworking tools I would need so it'll make a good project for us to work on.

Anyways rest of my summer shall be packing and moving and planning the mancave playroom.

Please stop using the term 'mancave.'

That was literally a marketing term made up by a company that milks men going through a mid-life crisis of all their money in exchange for road signs and car parts to hang on their wall. 

We aren't cave men, it's not a man cave.  You might as well call it what it really is... a play room.
