Overview

A chance haul of brand new free 15" CCTV CRT monitors (x5) has sparked my desire to design and build a standardised small MAME cabinet to fit them and to make the design available to anyone who wants to take part.

CRT

  • The heart of the project
  • the most expensive single item
  • the heaviest and bulkiest item
    • the position of the monitor high up in a floor-standing cabinet will require a very stable cabinet design (not on wheels unless really well thought out!)

Cabinet

  • hefty chipboard bases and 2x4's as per the big cabinet
  • laser etched outlines where possible
  • laminated panels made to fit quality T-molding
