If your ordering 2 the J-sticks are a little cheaper.

Thanks for all your help guys, and thanks for help on both forums Spiffy (and I got your PM about the stick, if I do sell it, Your first on the list, just gotta figure some stuff out).

So, does it sound insane if I just made my own cabinet, and made a metal CP? Is that feasible?

spiffyshoes:

Cool, thanks.

You could make your own metal control panel but they don't make greenlee hole punches in 1-3/16" (30mm) so you would need to either use a smaller one and file the holes bigger or use a hole saw.

danny_galaga:

good news with the hole saw is that even a fairly messy job will be covered up by the lip of the switches. i should know- i'm a hole saw abuser  :-[

spiffyshoes:

Yeah that or it would be covered by the plexi.  I still suggest going with a pre manufactured overlay though.  The only reason for him not to just mount them in the wood is because he doesn't want to make the extra effort to rout out the wood for the buttons and top mount the joystick.  It would take more effort in my experience to make the metal control panel from scratch than the wood one.  The only reason I'd go metal CP over wood would be if the CP was allready made or if the cabinet was designed specifically for a metal CP.
