Building a reproduction Dynamo HS-5 Arcade Cabinet - please help?
Hello,
I recently came into the possession of a Dynamo HS-5 Arcade Cabinet with Neo Geo MV-1 PCB and I must say that I have become hooked
I am now interested in building my own reproduction cabinet (with a few liberties) to use in a separate build with a Raspberry Pi unit. I had assumed that I could find the dimensions/measurements of my Dynamo HS-5 cabinet online and simply have the components precision cut on a CNC for assembly but alas that does not appear to be the case (though someone please correct me if I am wrong).
As such I have started to measure my own existing cabinet and build my own blueprints using AutoCAD.
Now, to be fair, I am certainly no AutoCAD wizard but I am trying my best and this is where I was hoping I could get some assistance from the community. I have done my first pass on measuring the cabinet and putting together a basic DWG file (with multiple layers) of the various components BUT I would vary much appreciate if someone could take a look at this file and provide some feedback on how to make it more professional and complete (and maybe point out any glaring errors if they see them
).
My ultimate goal is to get this file to the point where it could be easily handed over to any CNC service and they could cut all the necessary components out of MDF to those specifications for whomever provided it to them.
Note: All measurements are in Centimeters at this time.
I have attached images from my dwg file to show where I am so far and if anyone is willing to lend a hand I would be happy to provide the AutoCAD drawing file as well.
