I however would like to have seen your Cocktail renders not have the CP stick out further then the glass\top.....

Thanks!
It's one of two things. Either I haven't assembled the control panels properly (not inset enough) or it's an optical illusion. I'll check in the morning! (I do see what you mean, though.)

Yea it is an aesthetic thing that I hate seeing on cocktail cabinets. On the cocktail I made from scratch I had it so that the controls were at an angle and part of the joystick and first row of buttons were partially inside the main body.
:cheers:

Well, here's your answer.
From the image, the control panel is physically under the top, so I'm going to go with 'optical illusion'. The Midway plans I went from have a slight 'inset' in the bottom of the control panel sides, which seem to be the point that they attach to the body. Now, that being said, there is about 1/2" of control panel side that is protruding from the side, and that could be 'set in' more, into the side, to give the look you prefer...
...which is a very, very nice thing with this plan - it's certainly adaptable.
;)

Geez, I'd like to have only a small part of your talent with Solidworks...
I only tried once using Sketchup for the layout of the control panel of my future cabaret cab (guess from whom I'll get it...), and never was able to do anything..
I never understood all the logics behind CAD drawing. Heck, I have talents elsewhere...
That mini-pin design you posted a few days ago is very tempting to say the least, but my wife wouldn't certainly agree for now...

Thanks! I've been dabbling with Sketchup for a couple of years, and recently moved into Solidworks. The last time I ever worked with CAD was on a piece of vellum paper in grade 7 drafting class. That being said, I recalled some of the basics, and looked to YouTube and Google for the rest.
I'm certainly no expert, but have considered trying my hand at a career move recently.

Funny you mention that. I've got a 27" LCD in my full-size cab, and a spare 19" 4:3 LCD sitting around, so I actually designed around that... ..."just in case" it didn't sell.

Much better!
I love how this is going for you.
One other request, Wood, let me see your wood....Wait...
