Drnick:
Could just be the angle, but looks like you are getting mighty close to the right hand edge with the buttons/joysticks, have you checked for clearances required under panel?

Tks Drnick. It is snug but should fit, although I was planning on moving those buttons slightly to make sure I didn't have any trouble from it. I only have 1/2 inch overhang of the top panel on the sides. You can't rest your button hand palm on the top, but I am not too worried about extended 4P play.

With regards to the pocket holes you can just buy the plugs (assuming it's a Kreg). It's a bit more expensive than filler but they can be easily glued in place and the flush cut/sanded to remove the excess. No more work than a single application of filler, and if you're applying filler twice then probably quicker.

Control Panel mock up in place. Any thoughts before I start drilling?

for me all the controls need moving all to the left, as the way it looks now player 1 is almost in the middle of the screen with players 2 and 3/4 squashed in to the right.

what are the extra 2 buttons/holes for between players 1 and 2 ?

maybe start with player 1 and player 2 more central on the panel then position players 3 and 4 to try and give as much room to everyone when all 4 players are playing.

up to you as its your cabinet
