Title: My MAME cabinet: $500 on Craigs
Post by: Yoeddy1 on May 22, 2010, 01:12:17 am
This is my MAME cabinet that I found on Craigslist for only $500. All that I really did was configure a Windows Vista x64 OS on a C2D PC with MAME x64 and the Maximus Arcade front end, order a custom marquee and sideart, and paint the lower half of the cabinet jet black. Lotta fun for the family!

Since you have a lot of CP real estate, I would put a spinner on there :)

Im not a fan of huge CPs but since it already is a spinner would be nice.

Yep...I agree.  Any suggestions on a popular one that the BYOAC'ers prefer?

Turbo Twist, hand's down best one IMHO (http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=268&zenid=ad4ea22b3e742a46ef0877b22cea5058)

Also, you might want to pick up a premium knob. I have the ElecTron (http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=86&products_id=316) and I love it!
