Sorry about the dark pictures.  I need to get some better pictures of my cabinets.

Ras2a, I just wanna say thats onea the nicest cabs i have seen. In my opinion, Ultimate Arcade 2's are the best looking cabs when effort is put into them, such as yours and snaakes mamecast. Mine is also a UA2, and Ive put about 1500 dollars into it so far, got an over under coin door, built in light gun holster, custom artowrk being made by snaake ect, you guys are inspirations to me, and Im hoping mine will also be an inspiration in the end like yours are to me. My goal is for people to see my cab and just be in awe. Keep the pictures coming!  ;D

If you wanna see more detailed pics, check out my Arc-Eden thread in the Project Announcements section.  I would love to add side-art but fear my wife will complain that it's too 'gharish'.  Can't wait to see what you're turns out like...have you already started a thread over in PA?

edit: just noticed your sig - lol

Alot of times people will respond to my questions giving me dimensions to something on their cab or just tell me about something on their cab, then I'll click on their name to see if they have a website and alot of you dont, so I thought I'd create a "Post a Pic of your Cab!" thread, so if you read this, post a picture of your cabinet! I'd like to see your work!



I love Defender, still working on the artwork.  Re-doing the side-art, artwork for the swappable modules, and a real Defender glass bezel.  I also now have black buttons on the side instead of the green.   But other than that it looks just like what's above.

I heart my cab.    ;)

Almost done

**WOW**    :o

Very well done!  I love cabs that look like the original games the best.   Looks exactly like an original Q-bert.  The restored Moon Patrol was great also.  I'm trying to do that but it's not looking as good as it could.

I have built a 2 player fighting panel which looks kind of odd since it has blue Wico p360 balltops and blue buttons. I will take some pictures of it later, but I am going to build a better 2 player fighting panel sometime next week.

Dude that is a really good idea for a cab. Having the controls for the Horizontal and the Veritcal on the other side....I would of never thought of that.

you mean the 3rd control panel?

thanks but it definitely wasn't my idea ;)

my cab was built up from a arcade depot kit, the third control panel is pretty popular on mamed cocktails :)

It's painted.  It's a purple from Disney line (Home Depot).  The picture really does a poor job as the purple buttons from happ and the cabinet are very close in color.  For reference this is about the same at the purple button on this site for "What's New."

I don't like the mame marquee or the hump in the back but otherwise it's pretty cool looking. Is that a TV in there? Did you use a Happs bezel? cuz thats what im thinking you did and it looks good, assuming you didnt have to remove it from the casing

That's fair I guess.  Opinions are like belly-buttons; everyone has one, but some stink more than others.  I chose to build the notched back as I didn't like the big flat back.

Yes, it's the bezel from Happ.  It's hiding a 26" Mitsubishi TV.  The TV is in it's original case.
