Title: Looking for cabinet plans for a 4 player w trackball and at least a 24" lcd
Post by: Sickr1rider on February 02, 2012, 09:42:56 pm

I am sorry if this has been covered somewhere I have searched but I must admit I am very new to all this.

I am in the planning stages of attempting a mame.

I have a good friend that builds cabinets (I am no wood worker or have the tools) but he said he would be glad to help me he has just never done it.

I am thinking about buying the control panel off arcade r fun on ebay but they are $600+ but look flawless. So I have lots of ideas floating around but I mainly just want 4 players and a trackball and at 24" lcd. I am confident I can do all the wiring and computer work.

Is there some blue prints or plans somewhere I could hand a cabinet worker an they be able to create just off those plans?
Thanks is advance for the help this site rocks

Buy Project Arcade 2.   Full plans are included on the CD with the book for the Ultimate Arcade II.  The plans cost more than the book but are included for free.

What type of cabinet are you looking to build?   Standard depth?   Slim?
