Wow, incredible work McCoy.  I live in Ohio, so initially I wondered why football and why OSU for an arcade CP overlay, but now I think it looks amazing.  Of course, I know how crazy OSU fans can get.  Nice work and excellent documenting.  I can see some excellent games of Pigskin getting played on that box.  That game really is great with the 49-ways.

Cheers,
KenToad

Thanks man.  I had a hard time finding room for all the encoders.  I will be missing the pics of when I installed those, but it is common sense.  I'll be posting more pics within the next day or two.

I'm still working.  Here is a little description of how I made my cp box. 

First, I drew the box bottom based off the cp top.  I want the box to be 1/2" smaller on the sides and in the front.  Once I had it drawn, I use a jig saw to cut within an 1/8" of my lines:



Second, I used a brad nailer to attach a guide strip and then proceded to use a flush bit and a router table to make the edges smooooooooth:







All in all, I was very happy with how bottom came out.  Here is a pick of the final piece:
