Title: Star Wars Cabinet Plans/Dimensions?
Post by: kaptaink_cg on July 26, 2013, 02:09:52 am
Hello! I'm getting close to finishing my first mame project and starting research on my second.
For that one I'm hoping to create a replica Star Wars arcade system that will play all three original star wars games. So far I have a working yoke, but I'm having a terrible time locating any accurate plans or dimensions for the cabinet.  All I can find is the (awesome) Cockpit build.  Unfortunately I don't have room for that one.
I'm also wondering if anyone has precise measurements on the plastic housings that go around the monitor?  I'm trying to decide if I should just keep hunting for an original set or try making a reproduction of that as well?

Thanks for your help!

If it is the standard Atari upright I could help some day, but you will need to convert all data from centimeters :)

That would be great!  No worries on the conversion, I do drafting with Canadian clients and am constantly converting between imperial and metric. lol
