 Extended weekend project!  Blocking the toy cabinet for now, until I make room for it elsewhere. Still need to get a TV for it and finish up the rest of the painting and finishing up work, but it works and plays fine!

Re: Extended weekend project! That's awesome!
I've really wanted to build my own cabinet for a while.
Are you just running MAME or some other emulator off of a PC?
Please keep updating this thread with some progression shots.

Re: Extended weekend project! That's is pretty impressive! Love to see it when it's finished. And just how did you manage to convince your significant other that this was a good thing to have in your sitting room

Re: Extended weekend project! Aaron: Yeah, strictly a MAME cabinet, recently built a new PC and decided to use the old one for MAME.
silent killer: I debated putting in a joystick for player 3 and 4 but decided to hold off for now. Building the control panel was a little easier than I thought so adding on for 3 and 4 later on shouldnt be to bad.
baroncasino:Wow that is very well built cabinet, but not to fond of his control choice. I used to have a neo candy 29" sitdown and thought about building this one as a sitdown but I decided to go with the old style feel.
backtrack:Two words...Puzzle Bobble.
Thanks for all the compliments, more pictures to come!
