SubZero Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Hey guys, i am looking for someone who has this cabinet....anyone?
albert_c Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 My buddy has it. Basically just holds a 32" TV screen and has Akishop's PS360+ as a PCB to interface to consoles. Absolutely nothing special about it. When you find great deals on Craigslist for CRT based cabs, exuberance can be a bad thing! Current status of cabs: 0/5 working as desired :wallbash:
SubZero Posted October 8, 2015 Author Posted October 8, 2015 i know, but i want to build it myself from mdf, and with my alterations it will become something special i love the vewlix but i also love retro look so with this design and some alterations i'll be a happy camper. need the measurements of all parts been looking for ages for someone who has it and can help me out. i got my mind set on this project so another design is a no go
phulshof Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I too would love the dimensions for a similar project. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk
Frank Drebin Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I could pretty easily draw that out on sketchup with proper dimensions if you guys were interested.
SubZero Posted October 8, 2015 Author Posted October 8, 2015 So you know the exact dimensions....or you just know by looking at it? well i want to see what you can come up with. this is the only thing i have with some measurements I would have just bought it an altered it but i live in the Netherlands so shipping will cost a ton of money. and i can make it more sturdy from mdf
SubZero Posted October 8, 2015 Author Posted October 8, 2015 Maybe Albert can get us the measurements of the 2 side panels the one shown above and the bottom portion where the TV side panels attach to. and the CP rest on that will help out tremendously, i will let MAMEMAN make it into a CAD file with a few add ons
namdor Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I've purchased a different cabinet and the owner of rec room was great to communicate with. I bet he would give the dimensions to you if you asked because you needed to make sure it was going to fit or because you were going to do vinyl artwork on every side or something like that.
SubZero Posted October 8, 2015 Author Posted October 8, 2015 most of the times there not so keen on giving dimensions of there products......since you purchased one from him he would lightly give the dimension to you faster then me. could you be so kind to ask him?
Frank Drebin Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I don't have the exact dimensions, no. But I definitely could make a side panel that looks like that with correct dimensions for the LCD and control panel height. You building your own control panel or using fightsticks?
Frank Drebin Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Quick sketch. Not sure if you wanted 2 piece or not.
madhatter3339 Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I found something similar to that! I also saw a model in sketchup online so you can get exact measurements if you want!! Sketchup is a free and powerful program to use if you do any kind of woodworking it'll save you from making mistakes!! arcade cab side measurements 2.pdf
Frank Drebin Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 ^^ Looks like a standup model vs the sitdown originally posted. But ya, lots out there.
SubZero Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 And its coming to LIFE! thanks to MR. Drebin.
HazzardActual Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 gonna make that a public file Sub Z? I want one too
SubZero Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 Yeah, when the file is 100% i will share it
Asparky Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Is this what you are looking for ? vewlix-vlx-1-base.pdf
Frank Drebin Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Yeah, when the file is 100% i will share it Clean it up and make it legible OK?
Goodboyparker Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Is this what you are looking for ? vewlix-vlx-1-base.pdf Thanks Asparky - those plans look good. He has a website and a flickr album (https://www.flickr.com/photos/donovanmyers/albums/72157615957035070/page1) documenting the build. FYI
shitoken Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 HI Drebin Your sketch looks good would you mind to help to me a sketch if I give you a photo and screen size?
albert_c Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 I'll see if I can stop by my buddy's house this week. Remind me what dimensions you need. I'll snap pics and get all the measurements.
