Well, lets see:
This is just for what currently on my panel, as I originally had planned for a different panel which was a bigger fighter type panel with more buttons
2 Sanwa JLWs $40
plus $10 or so for a round gate and softer switches for left stick
2 Sanwa meshballs $24 (way too much for a ball whose design is very hard to see)
1 happ usb 2.25" trackball $80 (bought a while ago)
1 Ipac $40 (i think) also bought a while back
1 omni2 stick with soft switches $30, I then had an issue with the stick and perferred the JLW so I took the modded gate and soft switches and put them on a JLW.
1 TurboTwist 2 spinner with storage cylinder $75
plus Token Top Knob $23
12 GGG Electric Ice2 pushbuttons with soft switches and RGBs $84 Plus I had originall ordered more of these because my original plan was a bigger control panel with 7 buttons per player with 2 flipper buttons per side
2 LEDWiz Controllers (Though I currently only use one) $45
This totals about $441
Plus the cost for the custom cpo from Gameongrafix which I don't even remember the cost on.

Just finished my second vertical cab. I had built a similar one a couple years back.
It's 1 player. Left side is 8-way. Right side is 4-way. I may add a servo stick on the right in the future to make it 2 player for the shmups. But for now it works great for me. :-)

Hey all! First timer here.
I was browsing around for cabinet ideas and stumbled across Jarrett's 'Space Paranoids' control panel design he posted back in 2009 here:
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=83312.0
I totally fell in love with it. After some further digging around, I found out he had posted the his artwork source files (layered photoshop files) for all to use. What luck! Great stuff Jarrett. I appreciate all of your work!
I tweaked the font to match the Flynn's arcade cabinet I saw in Disneyland, and added the 'Williams Family' logo (My last name is Williams :P ). I had the artwork printed on laminated vinyl, and went to work.
I just started working on the control panel, the rest of the cabinet to follow. I still need to get the spinner, trigger joystick and trackball which explains the empty spots and placeholder button.
Sticker sheets back from the sign guy.
Before drilling.
After button install.
After T-Molding.
Cabinet base.
Dry fit.
After paint/pinball buttons.
Detail.
I also just received the controller, and I'm starting the wiring now!
Thanks for looking!
