Post by: Polokus on March 30, 2003, 05:31:34 pm

Hello, my question is if anyone made an arcade cabinet using the plan's from lusid's and converted them to cm instead of inches. I'm going to build myself an arcade cabinet but i'm not used to work with inches :(

thx in advance

Or if anyone know where i can buy a used cabinet in belgium, let me know ;)

thx in advance for the help

you may be able to find an imperial/metric tape measure in eruope, or you could use any of many conversion calculators on the web to convert everything to metric if you feel more comfortable using it.. good luck with your cab!

To convert from Inches to MM, simply multiply the inches times 25.4, and to convert from millimeters to inches, multiply times .03937

1mm = .03937 in

25.4mm = 1 in

Hope this helps.
