I have an operation wolf and an outrun cab sitting in my basement. Does anyone want measurements? The op wolf is pretty unique and there are a lot of angles / pieces on it.

I'll get ahold of you shortly about these, as I think they would be unique enough to have plans for.

I have torn my gauntlet cabinet apart to move (and clean up a ton of stuff).

I promised some that I would do some nice measurements a long time ago... but bought a house, went through closing, then ripped it apart to move.

Anyway, I will try and make it look nice to add here.

A lot of people have asked me for plans for my personal cabinet I have, which is (very) loosely based off of LuSid's cabinet. Anyways, I finally put together some decent ones for everyone to download on my website. They are in the "Cabinet Plans" section along with all the other cabinet plans.

They include very detailed dimensions of my entire control panel, which MANY people have emailed me about.

enjoy!

Are you still in need of the 2nd generstion taito cab measurements? I've got one in the garage... It's a Qix cabinet. Same as Jungle Hunt/King, Elevator Action, Alpine Ski, Space Dungeon Kram, Front Line etc. etc.

Yes we are. Can you email me so I have your email address and can contact you about this? That would be awesome man!

Yeah... well lets just say that only about 15% of people who replied to this thread offereing to measure up all their cabinets actually followed through....

Crazy Cooter · « **Reply #291 on:** September 30, 2004, 04:41:50 pm »

I'll start measuring tonight and should finish by Sunday. (My leg is broken so I'll have to get some help). These cabs were all bolted together though, so I'll have to get creative and hope Jakobud can decipher my stuff. All kinds of dadoes and crap.

I started compiling the 'Taito' cabinet plans a little while ago. I'm STILL waiting on my parts to arrive (ie brackets, CP etc) so as they can be measured and compiled in CAD as well. Being down here in Western Australia, really slows down the shipping process from overseas...as one would imagine.

But, if someone else is willing to measure their cabinet before I'm able to complete mine....great. The sooner, the better for others.

Game on!

Crazy Cooter · « **Reply #295 on:** September 30, 2004, 11:15:10 pm »

Spriggy, I'll be able to get everything but the cp (don't have it but can see where it was). I'll be looking for those side stencils as soon as I cut some wood... Maybe it would be easier for me to fill in the blanks you have? I could charge the digicam if needed.

CC,

As you would have read on my Taito Sideart thread, the artwork is on hold due to Wade's and mine current projects (both T&F cocktails).

As I aforementioned, I'm waiting on parts for measurement. IE CP, Rear Door Hinges, Marquee Brackets, Plastic Bezel and Bezel Brackets and Coin Door.
If your eager, you could gather these dimensions (and angles) and send them to me to assit. I'm expecting the parts to arrive within the next fortnight!?! if your willing to wait.

As for the Taito Sideart, you could use it in it's current inaccurate state (in Wade's and my eyes anyway) as a template to cut the sides and then use it as a stencil or vinyl overlay without inaccuracy. The main cabinet side outline on the sideart has been quoted as accurate, EXCEPT for the main large curve which is out some what.

I can not tell you what the Sideart, in it's current state, will look like if applied on an ORIGINAL cabinet.

Once the plans are completed, they will be given to Jakobud for him to use in which ever way he choses. I will however ask him if he could attach the Sideart (when completed) to the plans so it can be used as a template and/or later used as accurate artwork (especially as the dimensions for the cabinet sides are based on the Sideart stencil for accuracy)

The plans are still at this stage.......

I've done taito, we just have to coordinate ourselfs and it should be doable.

Crazy Cooter · « **Reply #298 on:** October 01, 2004, 10:26:01 am »

I'll try my first attachment...

spriggy · « **Reply #299 on:** October 01, 2004, 09:36:05 pm »

Good on ya CC. Thanks.

Yeh, I hadn't put on the small base yet as I haven't received dimensions and offset for it.

I'll utilise some of these dimensions to assist in completing the plans.

I find that depending on who measures their cab, some dimensions may vary upto about 1/4", as is happening in this case. For me, that leaves no easy answer on which dimensions to use.

However, not the end of the world by any means!

We'll get these plans as close as my skills allow.

Bring it on!!

I am after dimensions for the Australian/UK style Space Invaders cocktail like the one in the link below. I hope someone can help. I am after this exact style, with the two tiered cabinet shape. This is a pic of the back (P2) of the machine obviously.

Has anyone been able to find the dementions for this? Im really wanting the dementions on the Aussie style of cocktail too. I can try and find one and get some dementions to you Jakobud if your still willing to draw these plans?

please can anyone help.

i'm looking for Taito space invaders upright dimension / construction details, are there any known good sites on the internet or can anyone here help. this will be my next project.

i've checked this thread, i can't see any, so that probably means there aren't any

any help would be great.

thanks for your time.

No, its working - just tried it out. http://www.jakobud.com

Click on where it says Cabinet Plans in the center of the page. Then click on the file names (zip files) under each cab name. Pritty easy. Hope this helps.

Actually I figured it out, Norton Internet Security was limiting access to his site.

Disabled it and site works fine.

I have a GI Joe cab. (Used to be a TMNT?) I'd like to have a new control panel constructed for it (just the wood, I'd do all the wiring myself). In order to have this accomplished, I'd need the dimensions/plans.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

Does anyone have the dimesions for a 4player GI Joe/TMNT/Simpsons cab? (I have a GI joe cab, and I believe they are all the same.) I'd like to have a new control panel constructed that perfectly fits where the orginal one is. I'm going for a swappable panel cab.

Thanks!
Bill

I never found any or anyone who was willing to take the time to hook me up with them. I have sort of been on and off of this scene for a few months now, haven't made any new plans in a while. Maybe I'll get back into it soon.

Crazy Cooter · « **Reply #316 on:** April 21, 2005, 08:38:02 pm »

If someone has a joust cabinet, they could printout the Moon Patrol dimensions and they'd be 99% done AFAIK. I *believe* the only difference is the rear height (Moon Patrol is higher, thus the boxier look).

You could just approximate that dimension and build off the Moon Patrol for the rest.

Jako...were you ever able to complete a "Tron" cab in .EPS format?...I didn't see it on your site and am in desperate need of it. Thanks for all of your time and a great informational website.

Jakobud · « **Reply #318 on:** April 22, 2005, 05:56:04 pm »

No I was never able to finish the Tron. I have partial plans for one. There were some rough plans posted on here a while back for one, but they are really incomplete and a lot of the dimensions are wrong from when I got a chance to measure a real Tron cabinet not long after that. I didn't realize they were wrong until later when I checked with what I measured and by then it was too late to go back and re measure everything, thus, incomplete plans :-( I'll try to get access to another one sometime.

crsdawg · « **Reply #319 on:** April 22, 2005, 08:56:33 pm »

if you would like to finish up those tron dimensions, send me a pm and i'll help you. i'm getting ready to pull mine out for a bit of maintenance and it'd be a good time to measure it.
