DYNAGOD:

 ;D
1/8 inch metal is still too thin, i think it would give a "cheap" feeling to it if i didnt back it up.ill proboly have the plate anodized or chrome/gold plated and
i think ill get some plexi and overlay the diamond plate with that to beef it up.
 keep the plates finish from getting scrathed and dull.

 ok so, 3/4" is the golden rule, but essentially anything under that , but not too thin is good.
works for me.  ;D

again thanks


Stingray:

1/8 metal is plenty thick provided it has bends in it to stiffen it up. Check just about any real arcade game that has a metal CP, you'll find most are thinner.
