Have a 'real' arcade cabinet? Want to help forward the DIY community?
spystyle:
Hello my fellow arcade enthusiats!
Do you have a 'real' arcade cabinet and want to forward the arcade builder's community?
Submit the measurements for your cabinet to www.JakoBud.com
As you probably already know, JakoBud is a fellow member here that drafts and hosts (for free) measurements of arcade cabinets.
I recently aquired a Gauntlet cabinet and e-mailed him, he responded with instructions on how I could measure and submit it. Following his instruction the whole measuring process only took about 30 minutes, soon he will finish drafting the cabinet plan and it will be available for everyone!
A combined effort could make his site the free cabinet dimension mecca on the internet, and stop the L00ZrS selling 1 megabyte cabinet plans to newbies for as much as $75.
Additionally you get to have your name on his site, you'll be the envy of all the cabinet builders on your block :)
He can be reached at
jake.e.wilson@gmail.com
or if he says he is booked you can contact me spystyle@yahoo.com
and I will draft and host them (freely) until he can get to them (and properly draft them)
The cabinets he now has, and does not need measurements for, are :
A.P.B.
Bucky O'Hare
Centipede
Defender
Donkey Kong
Donkey Kong Jr.
Donkey Kong 3
Dragon's Lair
Dragon's Lair II: Time Warp

Craig's just trying to do some good. Most of the most popular cabinet styles are already on Jake's site. Always room for more, of course! So, check the site, see what's already there, and if you have a cool original cab that's not already there, take some measurements and help out!
bdsjake:
with so many new people joining, I don't see a problem with a reminder on such an important topic every now and then.
skim36:
I'm planning on picking up a cab or two tomorrow...I've narrowed it down to three...The Combatribes, Street Fighter Champion Ed II, or Bad Dudes vs. Dragon Ninja......dunno if there'd be any interest in these as I've heard at least two of the three are conversions.
RayB:
I might be able to as well. ;D
Someone needs to measure BurgerTime!
