I agree 100%.  Mine was a Asteroids Deluxe that was being tossed by the local Nation Gaurd Base.  It worked for a while, then it all crapped out.  It is now a "dedicated" MAME machine.  There are pics on my page.  Sorry about the quality, i need to get a better digi cam.

I also have a Dynamo Showcase cab that I got form a buddy of mine who owns an arcade for $1000 (with P360's built in  ;D )

Then I got a Sega STV Radiant Silvergun (!!) cab for FREE (!!!!) from a new store owner who was gonna throw it out.  Gotta get the monitor fixed on that one.... :-\

geez, you're a busy lad!! im interested in how your rotating monitor works. mine is electric with microswitches to stop it in the right place.

ooh MrArcade!

So good to finally meet you. When I first started looking round for pictures and research for the cab i always wanted to build, never thought I would though (starting it this year!) .. seems like years ago, that blue pacman one of yours was the one that made me decide to do it and that it could look GOOD!

I dont suppose you have any other pictures of it do you? construction pics, or maybe close ups of the CP etc?

if you dont , its ok.... was just a pleasure to meet the guy who got me into this mess, lol
