Bally Arcade/Astrocade Plastic Dust Cover Dimensions
Version 2 - September 11, 2020


These approximate measurements and pictures were taken by Adam Trionfo on August 10, 2020. Measurements are to the nearest=1/16" (Sorry, I don't have a metric measuring ruler, nor a ruler with 1/32" markings).

These files are available on Archive.org, here:

I'm not an expert, so consider these measurement to be approximate; they're certainly as close as my eye can see. The pictures with the ruler should provide any additional details required for those looking to create their own plastic dust cover.

Plastic Thickness = 1/16"

Plastic Dust Cover Measurements:

Width (Looking at the front of the dust cover)

Front (Bottom) = 11 3/4"
Back (Bottom, Outside dimension) = 11 15/16"
Back (Bottom, Inside dimension) = 9 7/8"
Front (Top) = 12 1/8"
Back (Top) = 12 1/8"
Back (Inside, Height) = 7/8"

Height (Looking at the left side of the dust cover)

Height (Front-Side) = 2"
Height (Back-Side) = 2 5/16"

Height (Looking at the left side of the dust cover)

Width (front-to-back)= 5 7/16"

Those are all of the measurement details.

Hi Adam,

Remember the cover is symmetric so you only need to trace half and draw a line so the user can cut out the pattern and flip it on the line to make a full pattern.

I did say trace, scanning this was hard to avoid distortion. I traced and carefully rolled the cover on its bends to get a pattern based on outside of the cover. The one bad part is that in the bends, the plastic will stretch so the actual pattern has to be a small amount shorter through the bend area. For this cover, the small amount of stretch should not hurt the appearance.

The attachments were to size on 8 1/2 by 11 paper.

[...] For anyone trying to print these, remember to measure the final print closely because printers will distort images and they often distort differently in the horizontal and vertical directions.
