Hi,
does anyone have any diagrams/ instructions for a double sided arcade cabinet?

I don't think it's ever been done.

If you're looking at this post and it was made before 2008, just ignore it.

I dont think so either, it would be cool though. I will probably just double the size of the sides.

this is the design that a lot of people end up basing their cabinet off of.

I think most people end up using the diagrams as a basis for their cabinet. I started with an idea from jcruise's website. If you've installed Mamewah you prolly know who I'm talking about. I ended up swaying way off course, but I built it how I wanted it to look, and around the equipment that I had to use. Since I made a small bartop though, I had to make sure all the components would fit under the monitor, and the speakers and control panel and lights all had to be crammed in there. I'm excited for you man, I can't wait to see what you come up with. :)
