Centipede Cabinet (Question for folks who have one)
« on: September 22, 2013, 11:31:09 pm »
I'm a complete noob to wood working and I want to give it a shot creating a custom Control Panel for my Centipede machine.

I was hoping there would be some members here that could share their Control Panel Dimensions. I guess I'm looking to copy an already created control panel.

I've done a couple googles and landed on this http://www.vesperworks.com/mame/pictures/IMG_2521.html , it's basically what I'm looking for but I would add another button to the Player 2 setup.

Worst case scenario I'll pm someone on a price quote to build me one ;) If I fail miserably making one.

Thanks all. Some ridiculously talented people here!

Centipedes naturally have metal panels. I have one with a Time Killers overlay and drilled for that layout if you are interested. No space for a trackball though.

I have never seen an oversized control panel bolted onto a Centipede cabinet that actually looked good.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Ditto.
