sorry for going a little bit off-topic, but would it be a good idea to stock up on color tvs now? if so, which criteria are important to look out for (besides sizes of 19 or 20 inch)? will any model be good enough, e.g. what about this one: http://cgi.ebay.de/Samsung-TV-CB-5073T-51cm-SCART-Composite_W0QQitemZ150408239780QQcmdZViewItemQQptZDE_TV_Martin?hash=item2305079aa4

As long as the SCART accepts RGB input, which almost all do.

Honestly, I'd much rather stock up on true arcade monitors.

OK, here's the values :

1. 176 CM
2. 83.5 CM
3. 14 CM
4. 30.4 CM
5. 12.8CM
6. 4 CM
7. 6.2 CM
8. 8 CM -> But not accurate because the bezel is not totally vertical! *BEWARE HERE* + the part of the hat is NOT a perfect circle here!
9. 8.9 CM
10. 13 MM
11. 11 MM -> Beware here... complicate area ! It would requires more details/values to be accurate!
12. 7 MM
13. 22 MM
14. 79.8 CM
15. Same value than 14 ...I mean the line 'under the Burger'...why asking this one?
16. 15MM

Well, some values are very hard to take... especially the smallest one (10, 11 or 16 for example) ... but I hope it can help 8)

Yesss!!!  Thanks Bruno  :-* :-* :-*

very accurate as always  :spaceace: :spaceace:

For the smallest values no problem ... I checked my Galaga cab (midway cab and very similar  :wink:), compared the measurements, and are equal .... so I can start doing the project on paper.

Thanks again !!!  :-* :-*

this is coming together nicely. any leads on the bezel yet?

regarding the cab dimensions / shape: wouldn't it be easiest (for you ;)) if bruno put his cab on the side and traced the shape of it on a huge piece of paper?

sorry bruno for suggesting that ...  ;D

what about the bezel?

Probably I'll use this method (used in Galaga and Pacman projects with great results  :-*):

Galaga: https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=402.60

Pac-Man: https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=536.90

In this post the Burgertime bezel file  :wink::

http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=98344.0

Unfortunately I've not found bezel reproductions  :'( and bezels for sale are in bad conditions (faded and discolored).
