Make sure you measure out your barstool needs. There are different heights and you want it to be a good fit. I have a few tall ones for my taller cabs and some shorter ones for Nintendo cabs and such. |

Let me just tell ya... I'm really glad you mentioned measuring out the barstools before getting them. Being the moron that I am, I would have, had you not said that, gone off and just gotten the first pair of stools that looked good to me. That being said, where do you guys buy your stools? The cupholder link above looks pretty cool, but at $9 bucks a cupholder I am just a tad dubious on the whole thing. $18 to hold drinks on the side of my machine? I was thinking I could get that done for under $10 somehow, even if they don't fold up. |

We got up early and hit the yard sales and flea markets just poking around. I just happened to find a pair in great condition for dirt cheap. YMMV |

I got my stool while doing computer work for a septic company Me - "hey where did you guys get these stools? I have been going crazy trying to find one to put in front of my DK machine!" Them - "Ohh we get them from bla bla bla we have some extras would you like one?" ME - "Sure! That would make my month!" The rest is history. Yard Sales and Flea Markets are a good idea |

Front Ends GameLauncher is easy to use and kicks off other games than Mame http://www.dribin.org/dave/game_launcher/ If you use it you should look at MenuMaker by DaOldMan, it makes it super easy to create Favorite menus http://members.tripod.com/~Skennys_Outpost/menumaker.html Cup Holders When I was thinking of installing cupholders I found Marine cupholders looked cool and were cheap (ended up not using them), something like this (would reduce CP space) http://cgi.ebay.com/T-H-MARINE-STAINLESS-STEEL-CUP-HOLDER_W0QQitemZ250147188241QQihZ015QQcategoryZ310QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQ_trksidZp1638.m118.l1247QQcmdZViewItem When I needed stools for my pool table I found some nice wood/leather ones at Fleet Farm of all places (spose these could be shortened if need be for an upright cab!!) In trying to find those stools online I noticed Sams Club has a nice selection of Chrome/Vinyl ones available for delivery (if you have such a store nearby you can generally visit once for free by asking) http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/search.do?org.apache.struts.taglib.html.TOKEN=135504c0cc22f9fe3eadd986e8b86b9b&searchtype=simple&simplesearchfor=barstool&simpleitemtype=1&location=store&sortby=1 |
