Gizmo:
I have the building plans from the Ultimate Arcade II, but this one is to difficult for me to build.
Does someone have the plans of Ulitmate Arcade I for me??
That one is easy-er for me to build..

Thanx

CheffoJeffo:
Yes, Mameroom sells them.

Gizmo:
Is it worth to buy it?
What do you get for $29,99?

The plans belong to them, so buying them is your only legitimate choice.

Is it worth it ? Probably depends on your abilities with tools and reading plans. They look pretty detailed.

You may want to have a look at Jakobud's site -- the plans there aren't as "friendly" as the UA/A2 plans, but lots of options:

Plus then you can make something more true to form. Another option is to go and measure a game you like. If you know someone that has one take lots of pictures as to construction. Then make your own plans and build it.
When I built mine I had one piece of paper hand scketched with measurments from a Taito Qix cab. It was classic slop. Erraser burns in the paper and scratch outs from where I made my modifications to the design. But the rest gets figured out along the way. The problem with precutting everything, is that is you make a cut a little too short, you will not know untill that piece gets used. If you cut as you go (using the same cutting plan) you can make each cut fresh based on the exact size you need.
I had never built or designed anything this big before the cabinet, but I will tell you, you will be quite good when you are done. BYO <-  AC
