Thanks for the kind words buddies!
It's just that as a collector it breaks my heart to damage such a nice piece of arcade history.
Just for the record: I also broke one of the very first cab I ever had to move.
It was an N'Styl (generic grey cab) at the seller's place, it has wheels so I slept my hand in the handles, tilted the cab towards me and... instantly the whole thing collapsed on me: the backdoor broke in two and the monitor neck hit my (iron) abs... I then decided not to buy it.
