Thanks Bruno!!! and thanks for the space available on this great forum  :-* :-* :-*

yes this is (unfortunately) my only solution  :-\ ..... here in Italy it's impossible to find a dedicated cab, and I'm to far away from Germany, France or Belgium .... so I build myself the cab I want (If possible  :P)

PS:

in Italy I know only one guy that has a original Donkey Kong cab (imported from US) and a Puckman cab, Italian version .... no other ....  :( :( :'(

Looking good scr33n! I'm really looking forward to seeing you finish this.

Polaris, if you go to the BYOAC site search for a user named Spystyle. He made up a printable template for pacman.

Also, here's the posting on how I built mine (I will take another picture of how it looks today, I never did post the pic with the coin door on it).
