Guys, another offer to host anything you want (plans, graphic scans etc).  website is under construction right now, but more than happy to setup the ftp site for you.

I have built a pacman based on the plans found the on the net both upright and cocktail and they are spot on.  Looking at starting to sell finished cabs in the UK also.

attached is an old pic of the pacman cabinet before the joystick and coin door went on

Would like to especially find the plans /dimensions for a Nintendo cab (DK, popeye etc)

Here's Tron and Tempest--As always corners are all rounded to allow for t-molding (straight lines drawn for simplicity)  the tron has no sharp angles whatsoever except at the floor.  I didn't measure any bezels or anything because they are a standard package (and would be a ---smurfette--- to measure)  The same applies to tempest--where t-molding goes around a corner, that corner is curved.  Enjoy!  And post pics of finished products!

Just as a courtesy folks--if you use the plans and then post them on a website--could you give the guy who originally measured and posted the plans a nod (i.e me)--nobody likes it when you pass off someone else's work as your own ;D

I measured an "Asteroids Deluxe" cabinet about a year ago.  I can post my drawings if there is any interest.  

I also have decent dimensions for "Loco Motion" - a standard Konami cabinet I believe (same as used for Phoenix).  My measurements were interpolated from the width/height dimensions posted on their flyer, and a good side angle photograph.  I am building a MAME cabinet based on those dimensions.

Also, a hint for the rounded corners:  I cut straight angles.  Then later I used a Pepsi bottle cap for the small rounded corners, and a spray paint can for the larger rounded corners.  Worked out pretty well.
