This is my second MAME cab; built from the ground up and modeled after a PacMan cabinet. It's got a 21" Viewsonic RGB monitor and genuine PacMan marquee. It'll have a single player control panel (due to space) with dual 8-ways, trackball and a single 4-way. Looking for artwork for the sides and the kick panel to download and print. BTW, thanks to everyone on the BYOAC forums, you guys have provided a tremendous amount of info.

Looks great! Very clean looking.
You can find some of the artwork you need by checking out the Artwork forum.
Also it looks like from the pictures that you are un-building your cab. Don't do it! Turn around and put it back together! Play some games...
Can't wait to see it finished.

Looks really sharp. Be sure to post pictures of the completed project!

Hey don't give my wife any ideas! ;)

Looks great...the one thing I would recommend is that you paint the inside of the cabinet black. That is how the original cabs were painted, and it really focuses attention on the screen.

hmm, I never even thought to look at an original for that, just assumed it was yellow. But, I think you're right it would let you focus on the screen better. I've already put the t-molding on, but I still might go ahead and paint it black. thanks for the idea.

That is NICE!
Don't be afraid to spend the money on the bezel and CPO at Twobits.com You won't regret topping off a fine piece of work like that. I was iffy about it but I was glad I spent the money when I saw the outcome.

Awesome job. Looks near perfect. I'm hoping to build something similiar soon.
