He used to have pictures on his site on how he did that.  They're (obviously) gone now.

My advice?  Just get yourself a real arcade monitor.

Actually for about the same price ($100) you can get a 8liners 25" chassis and find a 25" tube for free from a TV repair shop.  That is what I did and it works fairly well.  The 8liners chassis has lots of adjustments and they are on a wired remote as well.
