Yep, I agree with all of the above (except I would have never seen it if it was in Project Announcements)

Thanks!!

I'm working on a project website right now that will have pictures inside and out and cover how I built it.  It will probably be a couple weeks before it is up though.

If you have any questions, let me know!

Have a great day,

Alan

Looks great. I really like the simpler, cleaner cabs much better than the monster uber cabs (IMHO).

That Marquee is great!
It's exactly what I'm looking for for my Nintendo cab Mame conversion.
Can you share?

I too am very happy with the Marquee.  You can get it at www.arcadeshop.com, it is called a "Multicade" marquee.

Thanks!

The cabinet is a new reproduction cabinet (mspac/galaga) made by Mike Haaland at www.mikesarcade.com.  It came with all the hardware for mounting the monitor and metal control panel so the prebuild cabinet made putting everything together so much easier!
