Therein lies the conundrum.  A switchable stick is way more expensive than a standard 8-way, but if you like playing twin-stick games like Black Widow and Robotron, it would probably suck if the two sticks felt completely different. 

That's one of the reasons I opted for the dedicated 4-way.  It definitely does add clutter but it gets used all the time so I have no regrets.

take the price of two different sticks and compared it to
the one switchable.even if you don't use four way alot on player two.the games that use dual
sticks would feel  a Lil off with two diff sticks.but this is just my opinion I think two mag-stick plus would work guess you know they switchable from the top of the cp

To hold the plexi i cut a slot in the bottom board, and used a piece of MDF to make a slot between it and the speaker panel to slide through.


paigeoliver:
Silly question, but why did you make the control panel wider than the cabinet and then leave that extra space unused by keeping everything at least 4 inches from the side? You might as well have just gone with the cleaner look of a cabinet width panel since you didn't use the extra space.
