Thinking of building a cheap countertop 60-in-1 cab.....any advice?
I own a Magic Sword and an S.C.I. cab, but really want a small, countertop cab to round out my current collection. At first I was hoping for a countertop Playchoice 10, but the prices for those are insane, and I figured the heck with it, I can build a countertop MAME cab. But after further considerations, I'd rather have something a bit more authentic than just a MAME cab, I've built and sold a fullsize one before anyway. So I figure.....why not a JAMMA multicab? I'll fully admit, the main reason behind this is so I can pick up some JAMMA PCBs and have them shipped a lot cheaper than finding the cabs locally (not a lot of options where I live, I pick up what I can when I find em cheap though). Going with a blue and black theme.
So......shopping list!
Plywood - Have it
19 inch Monitor - Have it

So....that should be it for the basic parts. Only other real additions needed after buying all this is paint, a speaker, and some decals if I am thinking right. Anything I am forgetting Any advice from anyone who has been down this road before?
EDIT: Whoops, didn't mean to post this in the monitor forum, but in the forum above it.
