Barcade Cabinet Floor Stand

[liebowa]

I built a Barcade Cabinet and we're finding that we're not using it as much as I expected because of it's location, and lack of tabletop room anywhere else in the house.

I'm now thinking that If I built a floor stand for it - essentially turning it into a full-size arcade cabinet - that I could put in a more frequented area in my house.

has anyone here built anything like this and maybe have plans or dimensions, or suggestions?

Thinking something along the lines of this picture I found:

I made a stand for mine, for exactly that reason. I posted a picture of it here : https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/15975/my-first-bartop/2
I put a drawer in mine, which holds the keyboard & mouse, a cloth for dusting the screen, and a few other bits & pieces.

To be honest, there's not a whole lot to making a stand like that. Decide on the height you want, draw a side profile that you're happy enough with - get some graph paper and draw it out 1/10 scale (or whatever).
Cut it out, stick a top, bottom, back & shelves in the middle, and you're done.
