Yeah I like it a lot but it's not a keeper for me, it's too big for my little girl and not the right theme for her (I'm thinking about a pink DK mini) so I'll let it go if someone comes up with the right price. I'm very happy with the way it came out, I feel that it's my best proportioned and themed design to date.

Just stumbled onto your build!  Outstanding work (of course!).  :cheers:

I love the mini cabs and 1942 was such an awesome game.

Your "re-theme", using some of the orginal art mixed with your new stuff, is brilliant. :)


Complete mini arcade cabinet plans available.

Your work really is top of the line.

Thanks Mike, yeah all the side and CP are custom. The marquee and Bezel are just altered from the repro sizes to fit this format.

Using your plans for my first build.  Kids are digging it big time.  I will probably do different art though.  One question...it looks like it sits on the square base on the bottom of the baseboard.  Is this correct?  If so what size wood and what size wheels did you use?

Search for "American Ace", which was the original cab.
