I used Bondo, I sealed the bacside with duct tape before applying the bondo.

So it looks like the joysticks were mounted angled/pointed twoards the screen -Not straight/perpindicular to the screen? 

Is that an annoyance when playing, or do people just learn to get by that?

I'm struggling with my own cp build and have tossed out a couple of these angled designs in favor of straight.

Players get use to it :P, And i personally usually build my controllers in a angle just to create more elbow room when you have too big guys playing a 2 player game, bu :d :dunnounnot that is my preference.

If these feel like they will push thru, try JB Weld. It's stronger then bondo. If your going to install plexi on top, I guess it doesn't really matter.

I bought HVAC metal & used tin snips to cut big squares that were JB welded to the underside of the metal CP & then filled the topside with bondo (a day after the bottom cured).

Try that out

BTW, since we are talking about a dispensary, you should know that the best arcade game to play while "enlightened" is Tempest... Dig Dug, Marble Madness, Mr Do and Q-Bert would take honorable mention!   ;D

The top holes did not space out correctly but I think the stoners won't care. :banghead:

Tempest is my favorite all time game. I "may" have played it while "enlightened" a few times in the 80's. Lately though, the world is trippy enough for me without any additional help.
