My latest project is a 70% scale PacMan video arcade machine. The cabinet is the same one used for Galaxian if you like that one better. It is similar to Ms. PacMan, Galaga and the basics to Burger Time but not exactly. Those video arcade cabinets have more of a steep curve to the top and a bit more of a protrusion out of the front but most people would not notice. Of course, if you try a Burger Time variation you would have to put the curves into the top to accomodate the chef's hat artwork. I'd like to build one of those next. :) A mini Tempest video arcade cabinet is also high on my list.
This video arcade cabinet stands about 4' high and the base is roughly 18" square.
I got the monitor installed in the cabinet the other day. It is a 17" ViewSonic with the rear bezel removed and mounted through an MDF support bracket and 2x support strips.
I have all the artwork all drawn up and 100% accurate in vector format. I plan on having it printed onto adhesive backed vinyl.
The artwork and side panel templates for the pacMini are now available for download. [these have been removed]
