Hello! I'm finishing the layout for a two person control panel. I want it to be fairly simply, with just 8-ways and buttons. The one I've designed is 23 inches wide and 8 inches deep. I hope to build the control panel first and then later install it into a cabaret sized cabinet. I have a 7 button layout like I've seen on lots of cabs here. The buttons on the side are for Vpineball. I have two admin buttons at the top (ESC and PAUSE). These are going to be small radio shack buttons, not full sized arcade buttons. And I'm going to have my coin up buttons on front, because I just want it that way! ;D I need some feedback on the layout. I wonder if it's too tight and cramped. I don't want it to be uncomfortable to play or have the two players bumping into each other. Any feedback? |

The size should be fine. It WILL be a bit tight, but it's workable. Alot of the SF cabs were conversions about this same size. The one thing I think you may not be comfortable with is the pinball buttons. You're not going to be able to lean against the corners of the machine (like you would on a real pin) with the buttons put that far back. It MAY be OK for you, but it's definitely something I'd check out before you drill the holes, and commit to it. |

Should work out just fine. I built one 26" wide with a similar layout and had a dedicated 4 way right in the center between the two player layout and it worked great. Good luck! |

I would move the coin buttons to the outside. |
