Nice job so far. 

I agree you should make a template for your contol panel before you make any cuts.

My 2 cents is your buttons are too close to your joysticks.  Another thing is they are curved the wrong way.  I would curve them the opposite direction.  Here is an example of a panel with them curved the "opposite" direction.

Make a template with your layout and try playing with it.  I think you will find that you are tweaking your wrist play that way. 

One last thing, maybe add a couple buttons for coins.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the feedback.

Below is my updated control panel layout.  Please post even if you see a minor flaw in the control panel layout.  I will make a template probably sometime after the new year.

I will be hiding the coin buttons.  I want my coin mech to get a workout.  I plan to make a nice wooden bowl and put it near the cabinet for people to fish coins out of.

That shop reminds me a ton of the shop at my school. We have the same kind of bandsaw from 1935 or something like that. Our shop does have a CNC though, but we don't have much of anything else.

That's interesting.  For my school the bandsaw and a few other machines came over from the first high school that was built in Rochester. 
John Marshall High School was built in 1958.
Just curious how old is your School?

Below is a picture of the sides connected to the base.

JONTHEBOMB:
I'm finally finished with my cabinet.  :D

Now I need to finish the control panel and get everything into the cabinet.

Below are pictures.
