Any interest in original cab dimensions

Jakobud:
Neogeofan, there was a similar thread about this only last week you should be able to easily find.  It didn't have dimensions listed but it talked about the variatious button configurations and stuff.

First off, well done Jakobud! The plans rock! But I wonder if this guy on Ebay has ripped them off:

I know PartickL has been asking about this too, but has anyone found an easy way to open the DWF files in Illustrator or Corel Draw?
I'd like to get the file as an editable vector image so I can do a full size plot of the necessary cabinet parts, or if I'm feeling particularly lazy I could CNC some.

I've tried using AutoCAD2000 and FlexiSign, but neither supports DWF.

Any ideas?

I am currently redoing all my cabinet plans at the moment.  I'm splitting them up into multiple pages per cabinet to show them larger and in more detail.  I am also figuring out some different file formats that people can download and use for the very reason you asked about.  Expect an update within a couple weeks with a whole new format.

Regarding people ripping off my plans... i dunno what I can do about it.  :-[  Anyone can open up my plans and sit down and copy the dimensions onto a piece of paper in front of them, and presto... a copy of my plans and all they have to say is that they went and measured a real cabinet.  I'll throw on a disclaimer on there someday soon, but still its not like its gonna help much.

The fact is, that I am here doing this so I can give freely to this community.  If 50 people get something positive from that and there are a couple of people on the side who are ripping off my stuff... no big deal.  I'm happy that those 50 people can use the plans.  I'd never think about charging for them.  I won't let a few rotten apples ruin everything.

Hey Jakobud

two things....I didn't want to pester you about it.....did you have any luck with the 6 player X-Men cab dimensions?

Second, isn't there some way you can watermark them or embed your website's address into them?  I'm sure nobody here would mind having that on there, as you have provided us all with a free service for which we owe you a great deal.  

I, for one, can figure out how to plot the lines if your web address was listed across the image, and it wouldn't bother me in the least to know that someone's gonna have a harder time stealing your time and effort and claiming it as their own.

ooooooooh! I'd love to see some Street Fighter II dimensions! Or any other SF2 cab (CE, Turbo, SSF2, SSF2T).  

And not some conversion cab dimensions either! The real deal oneS!

thanks!
