    Hi,

    I'm new to this forum, so please forgive me if I ask something which may have been responded to allready.

    I'm trying buy (for reasonable money) a working arcade cabinet - or at least one which I could repair (am an electronic engineer). Is it possible to get such cabinets in this country - I'm thinking of some of my old retro favourites from the 80's like Kung Fu Master, Green Beret, Pac Man, Operation Wulf etc?

    As an alternative is it easy enough to build a cabinet? I've seen some plans, and I think I could tackle the woodworking part, but am unsure on the monitor situation in terms of getting the whole retro look to the finished product. I'd be installing a motherboard with MAME, and maybe ultimarc controls.

    Any advice, or people who would have a cabinet for sale as above that wouldn't cost the earth I would greatly appreciate.

    Thanks for your time.

    Hi gg339

    welcome to the forum,Answer to your question is it all comes down to time and money.easy option is to get an old cab and convert it,play it for a while see what works and what dosent.I have a few cabs,different spec some work some dont,give me a ring might be able to help sort something out.Check out a few links you might know them allready Klov.com and byoac.com some nice examples there.
