List with cab sizes?

[Luigi]

Hi everybody.


Anybody knows if there exists a list with cab sizes? 

[Q*ris]

I always check on arcade flyers for each of my cabs but I don't know if a "full" list exists.
Would be really useful when reorganising a game room for instance or transporting cabs.

Not all flyers contain the cab sizes, for some I have to look inside the manual.
I also visited Jakobud's cab plans but the size is always in inches and there are too many clicks to do until you see the measurements

Reorganising the game room.....that's exactly the reason why I'm looking for such a list. Of course, we can (and Dirk did) measure the cabs we have but I think about making such a list

Let's do it here!
I can measure my collection this weekend... but if size matters, we all know that Bruno won this contest

Are the sketchup models from Gozer not scaled ?  i think they are..

Ambitious but very cool project. Count me in.

Nice!
63 checks in about 5 hours for this topic, I think some people find this topic interesting/useful.

They are to scale, inches that is...

Inches are so 1924.

And weight

Great, more people jumping on the train

Dirk already measured (most of) our cabs so I will start a list.

I think it would make sense to add a photo, i.E. our european upright DigDug is different to the us version.


Gozer's cab models are spot on, from what I found out. But I would prefer if people would measure their own cabs


Yeah, those inch-sizes are annoying as hell. When I only think of those crazy screw sizes.....5/32, 7/32, 9/32....come on 


PS: Let's not overdo it by adding weights

i could provide a very small web-database (with search function) on our sever...

that everybody here can provide and read data ? (including adding pictures etc)

LOL...thanks Etienne, a simple calculator does the job


Jochen, that's a good idea to start. Could you build a small example?

I would use the following data:

* Name of the Game
* Manufacturer
* Year (optional)
* Width
* Depth
* Height
* photo of the cab (this should be the actual cab where the measuring has been done!)
   What do you guys think? Should there be a small version pof the picture visible or just a link to a picture?


I wouldn't add more data so it doesn't get too big.

okay, i'll setup a test-base (hopefully tonight)
