Default Cartridge sizes

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone had a Mega Drive and Master System cartridge they could accurately measure for me?

I've googled for the last hour and can't seem to find anything except NES cartridges here:

Quote:
Q: What are the exact measurements (in inches) of NES and Famicom cartridges?
A: You never know when this information might save your life. You can never be too safe! My measurements:
--NES catridge dimensions: 5.5"L x 4.1"W
--Famicom cartridge dimensions: 3"L x 5.3"W
This would be a great help as I am thinking of starting a project with these cartridges
