What's the First Ever Mame Cabinet you stumbled on?

(well it doesn't technically need to be mame, but you know what I mean)

The first one I saw was Tim Eckels at A@H  (warning pop ups and installers galore)... yeah I know boo-hisss...   From his page i found mameham's and retrocactus... my favorite back in the early days was mean green mame


*shrug* man I wanted one of these bad boys for a long time before I actually got it together.  (I had also stumbled upon saints site many incarnations ago and read through the faq.. but since I had no cabinet, the research here didn't help me at the time...

so yeah... do you remember that fateful day, where you saw a site dedicated to putting emulators/mame into an arcade cabinet?

 I was all into Computer Case Mods. Someone threw their Mame cab on one particular forum and everyone was asking how the heck does that constitute a case mod. A quick picture of the inside squelched those comments.

 The rest as they say its history. I'd like to thank that unamed soul even if I don't remember what his cabinet looked like since I've viewed every single example on the example page at least 3 times they tend to run together.  :o

Only one I could remember is arcade euphoria...

I never thought I would try this myself(EVER !).

I think the first one I really sat down to sift through was Mr. Salty's.  The rotating monitor idea was pretty cool - and I was lucky enough not to get too dissuaded by his 'matrices' and 'encoders' and those pics of a zillion little wires - keyboard hack maybe? i don't remember....
 
CustomArcade:
I think I saw reetro cactus first, then Arcade@home..which sent me to here and Saint use to have "This is GONNA be my cabinet section" back in the day when the url was as long as the dictonary :).

I remember shortly after I built my cab ROSEWELL appeared it use to be the IT cab. ahhhhhhhhhhhhh what a hobby :)
