Well, I first heard of MAME about 3weeks ago, and now I have a basically finished box in my Garage.

Wow, nice job.  3 weeks, eh?  You sure don't waste any time.  I'm going on about 8 or 9 months of planning and procrastinating and I just started!

Good looking cab!

Looking good, invest a few bucks in a coin door, it will do wonders for your machine, as would some colored t-molding. Colored t-molding always makes plain black cabinets look like a million bucks.

Very nice looking cab.
I agree with Paige.  Put a coin door in your cab.  It will make a great addition to a good looking cabinet!

Thanks for the feedback.  At first I was going to skip the coin door, but everyone that has seen it, has mentioned it.  And the more I think about it, the more I like the idea.   So i'm trying to track one down.  The guy that carries them localy is out, but should have more next week.
