Electrocoin midi, (or similar) dimensions, monitor angle?
« on: January 18, 2019, 02:15:25 pm »
Hello

I'm looking at doing a single player vertical shootemup dedicated cab.   I love the style of the Electrocoin Midi (here:  https://www.picclickimg.com/d/w1600/pict/401675212360_/Unigame-System-Cabinets-Original-NOS-Video-Arcade-Game.jpg -  2nd one in from the right) but can't find any other info about the dimensions other than std w, h, d.

Does anyone have one of these with dimensions or at least some info like monitor angle etc?

Thanks!

Hi,  there is an error in your reference image so I am thinking it is like those Arcade 2000 cabinets. 

Something like this:


Yeah buy yourself a 1up Galaga and do the mod.  This is BYOAC centric.
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

Thanks guys...

I attached an image if the URL didn't work.  The MIDI is the 2nd from the right.

Correct I am not 3 feet tall, haha.

Does anyone know dimensions of this, or knows someone that has?  Even just knowing the monitor angle would help.  I am assuming there is a standard monitor angle for cabs like this. (?)

I had one of these in the 90s, gutted I got rid of it! :(

Cheers

I knew an operator out of Cheshire that got rid of a load of those in a landfill.

Have you checked these guys out?  They are based in Warrington Lancashire.  They may have your cab and if you live close by, bring a measuring tape.  I was there in September and it was awesome, wear something warm. ;)
