Wanting an old cabinet - London

(1/2) > >>

mrenduro:
Hey all,

I live in London and am keen to start a project for a mame conversion.

I would have a go at building my own cabinet but my flat is tiny and I haven't got the space to do it!

I reckon, if I got an old battered stand up cabinet, I could sort the electronics/controls/art etc out but large woodwork is out of the question.

Does anyone know of resources in the UK that would help me find an old faulty jamma cab - I don't want to destroy a working cabinet as they are rare enough already.

Help much appreciated!

Phil. :)

Ginsu Victim:
Not sure if this meets your criteria or not, but it is a generic cab instead of a dedicated one.

mrenduro:
Thanks - looks like a great cab, think I saw it on Gumtree.
To be honest I don't want a working cab, would be such a shame to convert that beauty.

It's pretty much exactly what I'm looking but I think it's just in too good of a condition for a MAME conversion.

Cheers,
Phil.

Ginsu Victim:
So you'd prefer a water damaged hunk of junk? I don't see turning that generic cab as much of a conversion. You could keep the jamma functions and switch between the game and MAME.

mrenduro:
Thanks for the interest and for replying to my post but to be honest I would prefer one in worse condition.  Your SF2 is fine just the way it is - I wouldn't get round to converting it.
Thing is I'm looking for a project to complete, not a near perfect cab.  It'd be almost be too easy.

My ideal would be a faulty cab.

Cheers
