Mame Arcade Cabinet

I’ve been thinking about it for awhile and I finally decided that it’s too cool of an idea to pass up any longer. I’m going to start building my own MAME arcade cabinet.

I found some very cool resources and guides that people have done to build their cabinets, so I want to get started on it right away.
Arcade@Home cabinet pics
Spystyle’s build your own arcade cabinet guide
Build your own arcade
The Legend of Mame (in progress) with lots of pictures
Jakobud’s Mame Cabinet
Dazz’s Mame Cabinet

I definitely want a 4 player cabinet setup.

I can’t wait to get started :)

    [...] I’ve attained the cabinet I’ll be using for my MAME cabinet. The co-creator (hereafter referred to as Pat) and I decided it would be lots cheaper and easier to use an existing arcade cabinet and convert it rather than building a completely new cabinet. I received a free cabinet (working game no less) from Pat’s friend in exchange for some computer help. [...]
