Man the cabinet looks spectacular!!! I eventually have to get one of these cabinets!!! How much do you think it weighs? Could you get it down a basement hatchway? Would you even attempt it? Keep up the great work dude, I am cheering you on eating a salami, squid, pineapple pizza! TURTLE POWER!!!!

I have one of these too and to be honest it's pretty damn heavy. I'm converting mine to mame and rebuilding a control panel that latches so it can be removed for things like that. As a whole though, its really heavy. Maybe upwards of 125 pounds? idk maybe i'll weigh it :lol: but if you unbolt the monitor frame, the tube and chassis fold back and come out in one piece, and this makes it easily 30 or 40 pounds lighter...

Nice cab.
TMNT was a blast to play when I was a kid.

YEAHH!!!
Just read this thread... I bought a Turtles 4P cab a few weekends ago, and youre lucky, the laminate might have given you some goo, but it protected the art somewhat (someone scratched out Aprils eyes on one side of mine.) Mine has a new CP overlay (lame and generic) and has a button above the coin door that toggles between TMNT and simpsons.
Your clean vacuumed floor is inspiring... mines thicky dusted. And I've learned a lot from your gettin into the guts! I'm not going for the classic restore but I did order a new marquee (it was a split tmnt/simpsons) and fix the light, also wanna make a new CP with (L to R) p3, p1, p2, p4 instead of 1,2,3,4. and 6 buttons for players 1 and 2 (It'll be a multigame but in an orig turtles cab. Maybe itll toggle between TMNT and a 1069 instead of simpsons...)
I wish your later pics were linked up!
