First  post here and just getting ready to mame an existing cab. I have access to a Bad Dudes machine gutted but in great shape. I also love the curved marquee on it. Do you have any info or pics on what you did to convert your cab?

BTW: I am getting if for free so the price is right, I'm just debating on wether its a good cab to mame on a first attempt. Its a bit narrow, and I am hoping to cram a 25" monitor into the 24" wide space.  ;D

Thanks in advance,

Craig

I did my best to document most of the process, but there were just too many places where life got in the way!
I like the unique shape of the cab, but it was totally converted to something other than Food Fight and the artwork was not restorable, too bad because the original sideart was very colorful.

I figure its not too shabby for a first effort.

Right now I have 3 partially empty cabs, a Scramble cocktail that needs restoring and two mostly working Nintendo VS Dual System cocktails.  So much to do, so little time!  ARCADIAC!

Here's mine. A general "Mini Games" cabinet made by Leith leisuire which was a Sega company. At least, thats what the sticker in the cabinet said.
Its a jamma cab which had "Kninghts of the Round" in it by Capcom. Don't have a clue what the Sega game was that was first in it. Gutted most stuff. Kept the arcade monitor (am using an ArcadeVGA card). Added 3 buttons per player on CP which i had to laminate again because it was damaged too much. Did a lot of damage fixing on the thing and this is how it turned out:
