Hello, I am currently thinking about making a stepmania cabinet from scratch. I have looked all over the place and can't find much. I need to know the dimensions of a cabinet, what to use, and see some pictures of one.

well, do you want *real* arcade DDR dimensions?
cause if you do, i dont have them blink.gif

but, if you just want a working stepmania cabinet like i did, i can get started on a tutorial.

anyway, its really not that hard to build.

1) find TV
2) find a decent comp with tv-out (s-video, composite...)
3) find wood to use
4) draw out a basic design
5) cut stuff and put together


hopefully that helps E13.gif

Actually, while we're here, could anyone point me in the right direction to find a cable to plug my TV into my computer as a monitor?

I found this USB->RCA cable for $50, but I generally avoid cables that cost more than $30, so I didn't buy it.
