I built the machine by myself, so i did not take pictures of the cab being put together. I can take a picture with the back off if you like.

I tried painting the plexi glass to hide the gaps in the cab . I taped it off well and covered areas i did want to paint. It didn't work well . The paint bled threw the tape and got everywhere. Now I have to cut my plexi again..

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Did you spray it all at once in one thick coat or something? I've never had it bleed through like that by spraying in several thin coats.

Not to pile on but make sure you use good painters tape. Worth the extra few bucks.

 :applaud: I really like this bartop. I didnt read the discription until viewing it at least 5 times, and was wondering why the one I'm building looks slightly similar. I tweak the dimensions from an MK arcade so that explains the similar looks. Very cool I hope mine turns out as good as yours.  :cheers:

how tall, wide, and deep is the cab? and what size montior is that?
Mine so far is 24"high, about 16.5"wide, and 20" deep hoping a 17" monitor is going to fit very snug.

    Hey Pete, how do you have your plexi bezel mounted to the cab?, I see the two holes drilled in the bottom of the bezel, but what is keeping it from moving around? :dizzy:, pictures would be appreciated if possible, thanks.  :cheers:
