Humble beginings

This is my first mame build or first build of anything for that matter :D .
Im 17years old and from New Zealand (dont write me off )
Any constructive criticism,information or do's and dont's of mame cabinets would be greatly appreciated :) 
Ive decided on what i was going to do based on nostalgia of the game mk1
i want it to be as close as possible to the original cab and maybe with some slight ajustments to the
speakers and such since i will also run a jukebox off mame.

i will think about adding a low profile or unseen keyboard draw with wireless slim keyboards to go with it
this might mean having no handles on the draw and adding a push draw to it only slides out when its given a decent push in.ive gotten my plans from http://www.jakobud.com/plan.php?id=19 these where the best i could get for this .i will be using

-X3 Regular Density 18mm MDF

i will be doing the project regularly but not daily due to borrowing tools on and off trips out to the store.
as of now im ruling up the MDF according to the plans and getting a skill saw this weekend .
