This will chronicle the adventures I have in building my first MAME cab. I'm starting by building a bartop cab first, since these are the smallest...and should be the cheapest - and hopefully easiest - to build. If all goes well...and not too over budget...I'm sure other cabs will follow.
Let's get to it.
I kinda started in a strange place...I had a pair of old speakers laying around...so I decided that they would be the first victims in my attempt to build some fun.
There were no screws holding it together, and I didn't notice any clips or such that would make it easily pop apart.
So, with a little help from my trusty friend, Mr. Screwdriver (you can see him in the pic), I was able to crack it open. Turns out it did have some tabs, but they were glued into a slot on the other half of the speakers.
Anyway, after yanking out what I need, I gained two 3" speakers and a PCB with a volume knob already attached in a way that I think can easily be used with little to no modification. He shoots, he scores!
I'll need to borrow a bigger car to pick up my MDF...that'll come in a day or two. Then the real fun begins!
