Need help finding or making a template
« on: March 04, 2008, 01:01:34 pm »
Ok I have come to terms with the fact that I can not seem to trace the sides of an arcade cabinet using just the measurements. This morning I found an awesome template for the sides of a pac man machine that was broken up into almost 30 jpg's I was able to print this out and measure and tape together. This allowed me to trace the sides of a pac man cabinet onto some spare wood with ease.

This is fine and dandy....however! I am not really interested in building a repro pac man cab.

I really like the Donkey Kong/Nintendo style cabinet. I was wondering if anyone had made a template for one of these or could tell me how I could make a true to life template from the jakeobud plans.

I did a search and saw something about Visio but I could not get results that were even close to good.

If someone could help me out with this I would be indebted to you forever.

I am going mad trying to start this Donky Kong cabinet and not be able to get the sides traced out not matter how hard I try.

I really feel there should be an archive of printable templates. If I knew how to make them I would certainly start something like that

Thanks in advance...you people are awesome.
