I think those are for vertical monitors. The measurements would be off if you turned them horizontally. I tried matching the one from my Centipede. It doesnt match up.

Most Atari games have their own bezel, except for the one's that share a common cab.

I just made my own template for the CC cab. Thanks for all the offers and the help.

And don't forget that the black ones had a little shine to them. I remember painting one that I made with a spray can so it would look closer to the original. I think it came out OK, it was a long time ago!

the sheen is from the, being screenprinted black.

maybe not all of them but some of the ones Ive seen have had the part number screened with that black on the white board.

Where did you get the dimensions to match?
was it from a CC bezel?

I didn't think Arcadeshop sold a regular black one anymore? Just a couple of black coctail ones.

They have a dig Dug upright black bezel listed on their website

still curious how the template was created for the OP ??

Measuring the distances for width, height, and the lip (outer flaps) of the bezel would be simple on the cabinet. The measurement from the outside corner to the inner corner/edge of CRT is simple also. What I wonder is, based on that depth of the bezel, would the angle (at each corner, where each quarter comes together) vary?

Yes the angles vary from top to bottom corners. I took measurements then made templates with manila folder and trimmed until I got it right. I have the template made and have the material for bezel, but haven't gotten to making the actually piece yet.

Oh, hey, you're right! Friggin sweet. Didn't see it since they listed that bezel under repro graphics and every OTHER bezel way further down on the page.

Friggin wish they'd finally update their site so it was more organized and didn't look like ass. :/

Anybody know if arcadeshop takes orders and CC numbers via email? I can't call them until I get back and got a few other things I'd been holding off on ordering anyways.
