Hi there.
I bought a Pacmania Cabinet for almost nothing.
The cab is damaged by water so i need to replace the sides (or one side only).
Does somebody has the measures (Vector file) from the Atari Cabinet?
Thanks

how can i copy the side?

you put paper on the floor and turn the cab to the side. then you take a pen and draw a line around the edges.
-
Or you use the wood you plan to use for your new side...so you don't have to transfer the drawing from the paper to the wood ;)

very good idea if you cut it yourself.

so far...no problemas :-) BUT:
how do i get the big paper into my computer?........cut it down in a lot of A4 size papers and scan it ?
easiest way would be to have an vektor file

what do you want with it in your computer? if you bring the wood to a carpenter he has all he needs.

here“s a guy around the corner who's into cnc milling.
he needs vector files for 110% creating the original side
carpenter would be also possible but i thought cnc is better
