The MAME Project: CP Box

http://themameproject.blogspot.com/2009/03/cp-box.html

Monday, March 2, 2009. There is probably a better term for what we keep calling the control panel "box," but that's really all it is. The box that goes under the CP. We built that yesterday. Here it is. We (read: Alex) also routed for the T-molding. I didn't get a picture of the routing work because this was more interesting. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Twins Of Pleasure: Choosing a style Cabinet

http://uaii-mame.blogspot.com/2007/02/choosing-style-cabinet.html

Why build one MAME at full cost when you can build two at twice the price? Thursday, February 1, 2007. Choosing a style Cabinet. Having decided to commit to building an arcade, i start to pour through the examples at http:/ www.arcadecontrols.com. I decided that a cocktail cab will not do and that I wanted a standup cabinet. After looking at other examples I came across Jeffs Ultimate MAME Cabinet Project. Http:/ mame.velociworks.com. Eventually I decide to choose the UAII (Ultimate Arcade II) design.

The MAME Project: September 2008

http://themameproject.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html

Thursday, September 11, 2008. This is going to be a series of posts detailing the construction of our MAME. Machine. Don't expect it to be updated too often because extra capital and time will be hard to come by at first. I wanted to do this because there are so many resources online that have been invaluable in the planning process for this project. More or less, I want to give back to that community. I'll add some of the links I found most helpful to the right. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The MAME Project: March 2009

http://themameproject.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 9, 2009. We are both really pleased with the final product. Two months of work and we have an arcade machine in our dining room! Video of the startup (with custom graphics/sounds) to come soon! Installing the marquee wasn't the most fun thing to do, but I'm happy with the way it turned out. TIP: If you are building one of these things, print two copies of your marquee graphic. From Tecmo Bowl is the unofficial mascot of Return of the Super Kombat Turtles from Space II Turbo Remix. The first...

The MAME Project: January 2009

http://themameproject.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html

Saturday, January 31, 2009. Friday, January 30, 2009. On the drafting table (read: kitchen counter). Button mock-ups to get a feel for spacing. CP measurements done! Read Alex's detailed post below. Last night we really finished up most of our planning. After finally having all the pieces in hand, we sat down and starting to seriously look at dimensions. We're almost certainly going with LuSiD's. For the CP stuff, Talking Octopus'. Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Saturday, January 24, 2009. I had a nice sprea...

The MAME Project: Bezel

http://themameproject.blogspot.com/2009/03/bezel.html

Monday, March 9, 2009. We trimmed down the monitor bezel and acrylic with the Dremel and a razor blade for a more precise fit. After giving the TV a good Windexing, we lined up both pieces, tucked them behind the speaker panel, and drilled 2 screws (bottom left, bottom right) into the 2x2s to keep everything in place. I just have a few quick questions. Great job, by the way. How big is your monitor and where did you get the bezel? April 5, 2009 at 12:05 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The MAME Project: Cut, Strip, Crimp (Repeat)

http://themameproject.blogspot.com/2009/03/cut-strip-crimp-repeat.html

Monday, March 2, 2009. Cut, Strip, Crimp (Repeat). We began wiring the CP last night, specifically daisy-chaining the ground wires. It was much of the same process, but we got it down to an assembly line sort of, and it really didn't take that long. Cut wire to length, strip both ends, stick into quick connect, crimp. Repeat 54 times. (Pro Tip: get GOOD wire strippers, it will make your life easier). Half of the CP is daisy-chained together and goes into one ground on the interface. The other half?
