Title: Building Arcade Cab
Post by: Darren01274 on June 21, 2010, 05:21:26 pm

Hi I want to eventually build a slimline upright and use either a 19" or 20" LCD Screen. I was looking through plans and although it gives you measurements how do you get the correct slope
angle at the front? does anybody have some plans for a slimlime upright I dont have too much space and I dont want something too heavy.

18.5"wide, 17"deep, 22"tall.....the control panel is 7" deep

Making this with oak, been working on this off and on for 6 months  :(

I think I crammed too much in the control panel though, has omni-stick, 4 buttons a trackball and a spinner

unfortunately, i'm gonna be pretty busy for the next month so this will have to wait

good luck with yours, i'll keep following it
