Hi there, Nice job on the cabinet! It has a nice clean look, and I'm sure it's a blast to play. I really like the white t-molding.. nice touch. In my experience though, Mame cabs are never finished--they're abandoned! :) Hopefully you'll have a few months worth of playtime on it before you decide to rip into it again.. :o -88mph |

That's one of the nicest mame cabs i've seen, except that the angle on the monitor seems a bit too extreme to me. Did you convert an old Nintendo cab, or build a replica? I love the old coin door, though. :) |

My wife wouldn't let me decase the brand-new 21" I put into my cab on the first go-around, so it was sitting parallel to, and just behind the front glass. When I picked up the used 19" that's in it now, I immediately built a lean-back bracket for it, so that it would be away from the glass. Maybe it's a pet peeve of mine, growing up with the early cabs, but I always liked the monitor to be recessed from the front glass, the way it was on most of the early cabs. |
