you guys also traced it from joymonkeys bitmap? :D
i did too and compared it to this other pic cause some angles and curves a wasn't sure about.
but if we all used the same source it's no surprise they resemble each other... but then... i'm curious why mine is slightly different then spacies  :o

what was joymonkeys source then?
cause if his is off were kinda f*cked right?

No, for my Galaga birdhouse I used the picture of the south african site (after straightening it as best as a I could) to correct Jakobuds plan. I then changed it to make it's size more sensible for the birds though (basically I made it a bit deeper).

I overlayed JoyMonkeys version on the base picture I used and it looked pretty similar. I assumed JoyMonkeys version would actually be better than the picture I used. He had the benefit of using the MsPac artwork to correct the sizes.
coltchillin:
a birdhouse hehe cool.
i saw your miniature cab already but this is insane  ;D

the south african pic... i also used it to double check but it's a bit different from joymonkeys so i guess were stuck with some estimation till somebody traces an actual panel.

i might be a little obsessive compulsive about it but i won't start until i got it correct :)

if not i think i'll just design my own panel.

Sorry,

When I had it in black I couldn't see the alignment marks so I changed it to white.
It is spot on.

I am going to use it for my build.  :cheers:

Ha, ha, yeah. I'm a bit "space challenged"  at the moment so no room for a full cab (or for much woodworking). In a few months i get my new house with a garage so I can finally get going again.

Well it looks pretty much spot on. Why would you care if it's a millimeter off here or there?

I've been meaning to go back to Scheveningen to see the MsPac-Galaga reunion cab and measure that thing. I doubt it has the exact same dimensions though. The monitor in that is quite a lot bigger. If it's still there even. Every time I go back there they have less games.
