Title: After completing my cab thought I’d finally say hi
Post by: jahilton2002 on December 08, 2011, 06:55:41 pm

I’d first like to apologise for being abit of a lurker on this forum. Most of my inspiration came from here after stumbling across the site after a random Google fest.

In fact without the help and information I was able to find on here I wouldn’t have the hobbie I share and enjoy with my uncle.

I’d like to thank KNIEVEL for the “I gotta get me one of those” light bulb moments after finding a pic of a cab you built via Google images.

Andy from Ultimarc, as well as Gremlin solutions both of which are based here in the UK. Again without these guys, I wouldn’t be doing what I do in the garage every night.

And mainly the admin team and the members of this forum for giving me the information I so desperately needed early in my arcade building days.

I also have plans to make a bartop/cocktail/pinball and sitdown driving cab ( I play live for speed). Where im going to keep all of this, i have no idea!

So as you can tell I’ve started to ramble, so I’ll finish with links to my finished street fighter cab and my current inprogress space invaders build.

I also have a website that I use to showcase the cabs I’ve made to date. (my sig pic is clickable)

What, no build pics, interior shots, wiring, or anything about that nifty looking USB plug on the side?
Where's the cab pron!

:hissy:

seriously, though. Nice build. And yes, it does seem to be a neverending hobby  :)
