Best Cab for Eygo 27" Monitor
« on: September 19, 2002, 11:05:51 am »
I purchased an Eygo 27" monitor, and I want to install it into an empty cabinet.  Has anyone bought a used empty cab and installed this monitor?  Hopefully there is one out there that this will fit into without too much modification.

Thanks,

Dave

I have a Sega/Gremlin Cab that started off as a Pengo Cab and the monitor *just* fits when I removed the metal frame.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

I'm not sure why everyone is afraid to build their own cabinet? Sure it's a lot of work, but it's pretty damn rewarding! There are lots of plans out there, step by step, on how to do it! I used the Ultimate Arcade Cabinet...the plans were in a pretty staright forward word .doc.  And trust me, I'm NOT a wood working kinda guy.  I suck at it.  I can email you the exact .doc that I found somewhere on the internet (I can't remember where).

Also, destroying a working arcade game from the past is a sad thing to do IMHO.  

Here's my Eygo 27" in the cabinet I made....

Could you please send me the plans at dhenrynj@yahoo.com  The one thing I think people forget is that some people(like me) don't have a yard, garage, or basement to do this.  Now I just have to convince my wife to let me do all this work in my apartment.
