Get some cardboard, and cut-out a prototype. This is the best way for you to figure out what is most comfortable for hours of play. It'll take 20 mins of your time. I like to do these things while taking a dump. Time saved there.

This is just getting funny...everyone cries my buttons are too far apart.  So I pause build  Guy agrees to re-do it.  He tells me they are 1.65" apart...then I ask for the proper spacing and people are sending my images with 1.75" apart.  That's wider than the size everyone is saying is incorrect.  If anyone could help here, much appreciated.

Take a piece of paper and drop some dots on 1 5/8" or whatever they told you apart and see if it works for you.  Modify accordingly.  That is what is optimal, whatever works best FOR YOU.  That's the beauty of custom.

Hell, Andre the Giant would have probably had buttons 3" apart, and everyone here would have tore him a new one over it, but hey, its would have worked for him.

Also, your bat tops are matte instead of glossy from the pics of the originals, so that will probably affect playability  :o

I'd tell him to put a ruler/tape measure up to what he has and send YOU the photo. Maybe it's just my eyes, but yours look closer to 2" than what shows up there.

Louis Tully:

I made mine 1 1/2" horizontally and 1 3/8" vertically spaced and it's pretty comfy. Honestly 1 3/8" all around would be nice imo. I don't think they can get much closer than that without the nuts rubbing together.  >:D

The buttons should touch.  That's why they have such a wide bezel around them.
