Arcade Cabinet with a Pedestal

Hi, I have been looking for ages for plans to make a cabinet with a pedestal. I am trying to draw my own but if there are any out there, please let me know. Thanks.

I don't have links to ready plans for such a cabinet, but if that's the style you are looking for, my advice would be to look for plans for a similar standard cab and modify them for that feature.

That's literally all this seems to be.  Not a "pedestal" in the traditional sense, rather just a normal cab with a pedestal-like front treatment.  Honestly, as interesting as it looks, it adds a fair bit of unnecessary build complexity and reduces internal space.  But if you are up for a build like that, modifying existing plans should be a fairly trivial exercise.
