Hi all, i spent about 2 months on this site trying to figure out what type of mame cab i was going to build. I didn't want to do a conversion because i see that it is frowned up by some in the community. so while trying to decice what to build, i ran across a produce stand a work that was about to be tossed out so i got it. it reminded me of a cab so i decided to see if i could make it look like a mame cab. it sat around for about another month, but once i got around to trying to do something with it it only took 2 day, not full ones, to get completed. i call it emulation universe because i use it to emulate everything i can, mame, snes, nes n64, ps1 sega genisis, and on and on.
some materials i used:
1 sheet mfd
1 sheet plexi glass
gallon of primer and gloss black paint
7 dollar florecent light from wal-mart
ipac2
buttons from dream arcade
3.2 p4, 1gig mem, 300gig hdd, 17 lcd, kingston track ball i had for years and wan't using
screws i had from a kit i bought years ago, ( i buy stuff just to have, almost never use
here are the pics
i don't have pics of some steps but tomorrow i will upload pics of whats been completd so far but i have so many more ideas that i think this thing is far from complete
