I've been looking round for my first Cabinet and at a glance thought these looked a bit nasty and well over priced. I'm new to machine construction but think I'd be able to make a better attempt at the insides from what knowledge I've gained from forums already.
I just hope people stay well clear of these.

I can not believe how the original internals were thrown together. I would be gutted. Nicely saved.

Took me about 10 hours to complete the strip/refurb. and most of that was working out how to mount stuff & connecting up the new loom.

why did you do away with the crt and replace it with an lcd? (that's making it worse, not better!) |

wow. I'm new to all this but even I can see how crazy that price is to what you get. It has been put into perspective by my current mame project which is well on the way (all major expenditure anyway) and has so far cost me around £140. From here its mainly just elbow grease - and the results look far better (thanks to some of the awesome members here).

Success - I managed to pickup another!
This time it's an "Arcade Classics" same shit in different branding. Was listed for a start price of £150 & didn't sell so I offered £120 cash for it (as its the coin operated version) and the seller accepted it - I'm picking it up later this week & pictures of the shoddiness will be a J+ exclusive!!! http://www.jammaplus.co.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=50843&PID;=504384 Edited by penrhos - 17 May 2013 at 10:25pm |

hi everyone, new to the forum, anyone know where you can get flat pack jamma cabinets or is it
cheaper just to buy a non working one and add customize parts yourself? |
