MAME Cabinet

To Goblincat, et al.

Do any of you arcade junkies know of a source for plans for a sit down MAME cabinet? I have a friend who is a HUGE Ms. Pac-Man fan and is looking to try to recreate the cabinet with a MAME computer inside. Actually, if he could find a sit down Ms. Pac-Man table that wasn't in excess of $1000, he would just buy that.

There are plenty of non-Ms Pacman cocktail arcades available. Check at your local arcade repair shop. I picked up a Galaxian a few years ago for $100. It was damaged, but I just wanted the cabinet. Also check ebay for "cocktail arcade". You may find a few hits on there. Good Luck!

Good call... That is probably the best bet. I've never seen plans for building one of these.

Dude, I've been waiting for an update on your project. Have you finished yet?

Haven't gotten much done lately because the wife wanted me to finish the basement and home theater. I'll try to post some pics of it tonight.
