ISO: TOUGH control panel overlay for a metal control panel to cover the holes..
(1/3) > >>
SNAAKE:
other than gameongraphix/mamemarquees where else can I order a control panel overlay that is tough enough to cover the trackball hole(see  picture)?

im looking for something like the original capcom diamond panel or something like  that but would like to print my own graphic on it
daywane:
I do not undestand the question .
are you wanting to remove the track ball? and cover the hole?
I see nothing wrong with the CP.
SNAAKE:
yes I dont want the trackball. and the 7th button is annoying too lol

I dunno why they do this..probably for neo geo games :dunno
Zeosstud:
That 7th hole, on one side you put a spinner and on the other side you put the button that changes the joysticks from 4 way to 8 way mode. You leave the trackball because Teknoparrot now supports Golden Tee 2016 and it is amazing.

or

I used 1/4" plywood to transform a metal control panel, not sure I would really recommend it, but it certainly solved the problem.

PL1:
Another option to consider is a 3d printed cover for the trackball hole.
- It should be pretty easy to use the trackball mount hardware to hold the cover under the panel.
- The cover should have a raised circular part to fill the trackball hole flush with the top of the panel.

With a cover like that, a regular CPO should be fine.

I can design a parametric cover like that for you in OpenSCAD if you provide the necessary measurements.   :cheers:
