Title: Some dimensions needed for Donkey Kong Cabinet
Post by: geforcemx on June 10, 2007, 08:02:56 am

I'm building a Donkey Kong Cabinet using the plans from Jakobud.com. Problem is, I don't have the dimensions for the placement of the monitor.

Can someone fill in the dimensions for the image I included. Just use the letters I have laid out.

Do you know anyone that has a DK cabinet? I just need someone who has one to take a few measurements.

These measurements were taken on my DK jr cab with a metal yardstick.  Should be the same.

a 4.5 inches
b 4.25 inches
c 14.5 inches
d 21.25 inches
e 34.5 inches

Note: E was a ---smurfette---.  I could not get to the front of the cab so had to extend D to the back of the cab and measured at the back.


Hope that helps.

Thank you very much ;D

I can continue building my cabinet now that I have those dimensions.
