Title: Anybody have dimensions on Marvel vs. Capcom cab?
Post by: AceTKK on May 21, 2005, 08:53:09 pm
I saw one of these in the local arcade today and I really liked the way it felt.  Does anybody have plans / dimensions for this cab?  I checked Jakobud's site already and didn't see it.

Thx,

I have one, let me know what measurements you are looking for.

Ive got one to but i dont know how to accurately take dimensions when dealing with angles and schtuff.  :(


This is the second time I couldnt really help with someone wanting dimensions of a cabinet I had. Someone else was wanting accurate dimensions of a NEO GEO cabinet and I felt helpless not being able to share the dimensions of it.


Maybe someone could show me a tip on how to measure the angles on corners and being able to show that on a blueprint?

Thx for the help guys.  I'm just looking for very basic information: total height,width, depth, height of CP top (from ground), width and depth of CP.  I think that'll do it, I appreciate it!

You can take angles with a basic protractor. They're used in geometry class. It looks like a half-circle with degrees marked off on it. You can find them anywhere that sells school supplies. They're plastic and cost less than a buck. Depending on how precise you want to be, you can check you angles with math later. Otherwise, if you posted your measurements we could probably double check the math for you here.

okay, got some measurements for you. they aren't exact because I just did it quickly, but they are within +/- 1/4". no angles yet either but when i get a protractor i'll get exact measurements and angles to do up some plans. hope this helps.
