CPS-III Arcade Build Advice

[SwagDoll]

Hi, I've been planning on building an arcade machine for a CPS-III that I've bought this year. While I have the board and Darksoft BIOS already, and I know that I need a power supply and JAMMA harnesses, I'm not sure what else I need to get aside from that for the board. I'd also like some advice on where to buy a cabinet from, as I don't know what the best place and/or parts are for something like this.

Standing or sitting?
CRT or LCD?

The most plug and play "honda civic" for what you're probably looking for is a Sega New Astro City or Sega Astro City. The beginers guide to candy cabs on youtube to familiarize yourself with some of the common japanese candys even if the prices are outdated. Cosmo Logi is my preffered crt importer atm.

I'm personally planning on doing a standing cabinet with an LCD screen, and I was thinking more of doing a DIY cabinet as opposed to a prebuilt one due to a combination of price and lifting any weight to where it's needed. I'm not opposed to a CRT monitor if necessary though.
