I am up over 3K on my first cabinet with no regrets & I am already considering my next project. I don't believe you can justify the cash you spend on any hobby, you do it because it interests you and gives you satisfaction or pleasure. |

I've got about $1,500 into my cab which I finished last Sept/Oct 2004. We play it A LOT! I haven't kept track in terms of 'quarters', but it's been *WELL* worth it! I've got 3 boys that just love playing on the cab. Not to mention I'm an old arcade junkie. Sometimes I just stand there and look at it... :) And besides, if you ever decide to take it apart (blasphemy!) you'll still have the TV & a PC. You'll get your moneys worth! 8) |

Spending $300 or $3k on your cabinet is only the means to an end. The feeling of accomplishment along the way and enjoying the fruits of your labour in the end is where the real enjoyment is. - FA |
