Terminator 2 gun base dimensions
Timstuff:
Ok, I getcha. :)
I'm thinking it'd probably make the most sense to make the "mounting boxes" be about the size of the guns' mounting footprints. It want the control panel to look farily clean, so i'll probably do something like in the illustration below.
But, since it's going to be mounted at an angle, it'll be pretty tricky figuring out how to cut the MDF and keep the top level. Oy, I hate math, but I get the feeling I'll be doing alot of it if I intend to get this idea to work.

yeah.. that looks like a good idea and is probably what I am going to do also.. The only thing I wonder about is, since some people like to play T2 with one of their elbows on the panel to sort of prop themselves up. I wonder if angling the control panel would make that uncomfortable... ??? grr.. so much to think about.. we all just need about 5-6 Mame cabinets for each type of game ;D
Timstuff:
As for the "boxes" that go around the gun mechanics, I think I've got it figured out more or less how they should be built. But I've still got the dilemma of not knowing what measurements the parts should have, which would be really useful and important information to have when I go to build this stuff. It would probably get rid of alot of measuring and expirimentation if I could know what size everything should be ahead of time.

And I can't remember how to spell "Aluminum" for the life of me! :p
