@COS- If you're referring to the coin button, i got it from groovy game gear, i think its something like $8 IIRC. the only thing i did was to take the spacer piece off the back to get a lower profile install. I made a small template and used a guide bushing to route it out with my little Bosch Colt router. little extra work, but i like the way it came out.

Yeah, I meant the coin button. Sorry, I didn't realize I'd quoted the wrong picture. Thanks for the info, found it:

U should supply us with your blueprints for those of us (cough) who would like to build one just like that ;)
Keep up the good work!

here's a quick sketch of the side dimensions. kinda crude, but should give you an idea. do all your layout and save speaker and marquee area for last as these were developed from the intersection of right angles in the top and monitor areas. i tried to sketch it up to scale and something wasn't quite working right, probably due to the tiny little protractor i was trying to pull the measurements from. the protractor measurement are probably accurate to +/- one degree.
i'll try and get a sketch of the control panel as soon as i get a chance. HTH
