The Great MAME Arcade Cabinet Project Part Two!

Posted on Wednesday, June 9 @ 15:57:07 Eastern by Duke_Ferris

I've had to travel a lot the last couple months for work and weddings and stuff, but I still find time when I can to work on my arcade cabinet. I have pics.



Finishing up with the upper body panels.



Put in the floor and braced the front. Mounted hinges.



Hinged front cover panel in place.



Finally here it is standing up with the X-Arcade sticks in place.

I think this is about as far as I can take it until after E3. I cant build the shelf for the screen until I buy it and measure it precisely, and I don't want to paint it until the very end. Once I'm back from E3 I'll buy the monitor and we'll close in on the final steps.

The Donkey Kong Jr. marquee I found at a garage sale for $1. Yes it will be backlit.

    Donkey Kong .J.R. The game where Mario is such an A-hole by kidnapping an ape's parent.

    Mario's an A-hole no matter how you spice it.

    Also, sweet!

    Get inside hinges for your front door. It will clean up the aesthetics of your cab! What kind of screen
    will you use?
    Looking good :)
