Half size or cabaret size? There seems to be a lack of Cabaret size games. They make great 60-1 games.

Template for the Midway is done and I'll be assembling a sample this week. Thanks for the orders so far. There is a lot of new Nintendo cabinet out there, hope they get put to good use.

Thanks again.

Any chance that a Taito or Williams cabinet could be in the mix somewhere down the road? A Williams cabinet would be great for those of us who are looking to construct a Multi-Williams without killing an original. :twisted:

If I have an original to clone I can make these. I personally don't own a Williams cabinet and I don't want to use a set of internet plans. From what I've heard and read, internet plans are not true to the original.

Both of these would be awesome. Are they full games right now or empty cabs?

Still working on finishing up the Midway example. I have been blown away by the amount of Nintendo orders so far and will have to put some on hold to complete the Midway.

I'll post asap.

If you do, I have an unoriginal (e.g. old CAG version scaled up to match width) CPO that you can have for ... well, pretty much anything. Smack B1 around and it could be yours!

I will not be making a wide body Nintendo cabinet. The wide body is different than the normal cabinets and I would prefer to stick to four or five popular designs.

WRT the Midway cabinets, what are you doing about the feet? Will you be using a Midway style bracket or do you have something else in mind?

Looking for a set of feet myself.
