That looks pretty great with the white on black. Is that a stencil or full overlay?

First time poster, long time lurker. A very epic 9 year thread by the way. Very educational.
I wanted to ask about the number of buttons: you drilled for 8 player buttons but covered over the holes so there's only 6. I've been wondering about 6 vs 8 player buttons. How many games really going to use the 8 player buttons? Is that mostly for console games? Did you drill the extra holes for future expansion? Just curious.
I'm working on creating my own control panel. Very slow going. Almost losing patients (although I've never done anything remotely similar to this and it's only been 2 1/2 months).

As I mentioned in a previous post, I bought the wood panel itself online, so it was already pre-drilled with 8. Yes, if you want to use it for the console type games where you would need the L1,L2,R1,R2, you would need the 8 buttons. I use a regular controller for those games, so I only needed 6.
