Your stick-to-buttons distance looks tight to me, just eyeballing it - does the joystick housing beneath the panel clear the button nuts?
meltman:
It should. Its an Astro city layout. I’ll print and confirm. The stick to button spacing is based off of this image http://tengokugame.free.fr/panel_scan_astro.jpg

Does the centering look correct? Like from an edge of panel to stick for P1 and edge of panel to buttons for p2?

Laythe:
Oh, cool.  If it's an existing pattern, it'll surely work as long as you're using a similarly sized stick.

There are several geometry-correct answers to problems like this but what matters is what looks right.

I think it looks okay.  I might try nudging the whole P2 setup a little left, but not much.  1/4 inch maybe, if those are 1 1/8 button holes?  But then I'd just be seeing if I thought that looked better or worse - it's fairly subjective.

meltman:
Really appreciate your insight.

After printing and seeing in the real, I have a few adjustments to make.
