I decided to dismantle my automated cabinet(sorry DaOld Man) because it got to be too complicated and took up too much space. I have a 50" TV on the wall, so a pedestal cabinet with casters, seemed like a good compromise. I wanted it to be simple to build, that is why I use the base that is use the an Iircade cabinet. These things are built rock solid and at the time only cost $50, I couldn't go wrong using it. I used all the same button, joysticks, light guns, I/O devices, PC and software. The only thing I bought was a new trackball, the old one never worked that good and I wanted a blue one. I reused the original Marquee I created from the automated cabinet as well as the lighted Sith symbols on the pedestal sides. I even repurposed some of the artwork onto the control panel. The casters were needed so I could move the pedestal if I wanted to play pool.
3D printed a button cover for the start button, I also printed one for the stop button.
