Title: Wanted: A Cabinet in the PA/NJ area.
Post by: barnes on December 03, 2006, 06:45:28 pm: I want to build a MAME Cabinet, but I'm not exactly a handyman with wood, so I wanted to buy a cabinet I can build into. I want to sepnd like 50 - 100, and can travel to pick up.

Post by: MrTroy on December 03, 2006, 07:24:24 pm: It doesn't have a steering wheel. When I made a cab from it, I cut off that area in order to put a flat control panel on it.

I can't charge you for it. I got it for free myself. It's a barebone cabinet. With a coin door I believe.

Post by: barnes on December 03, 2006, 08:18:45 pm: No monitor? What size monitor could I put in that?

For no charge, I might have to take it. Could that fit into a minivan?

Post by: MrTroy on December 04, 2006, 10:10:35 am: :dunno maybe. Both times that I moved them, I used a truck. I won't be around the cabinet for a few day(I'll be there Weds) but http://www.jakobud.com/ has the plans for it there. I managed to get a 25 inch monitor barely squeezed in there (the back was hanging out slightly). I took the wood out that held the last monitor (19") and there's plenty of space in there.

This is in Southampton which is about 20 minutes from Levittown if you wanted to make it a road trip. :)
