Wow - that's a really nice job on those mounting plates - they look perfectly flush with the surface of the CP. :cheers:
acevedor2:
Thanks! That was so far the biggest pain. Not because it was all that difficult, but because this is the first time I have ever tried it. I am priming it as we speak and hope to have it painted tomorrow. Goal is to get the entire CP finished and wired by weekend's end..... Hopefully....
acevedor2:
Ok, CP top has been primed and painted. Now I have to wait a day or two for it to completely dry before I can put the artowrk and finish installing the controls. That will give me some time to get the computer setup.
This may sound like a dumb question, but I have the slikstik spinner. Is there a right and a wrong way to put that in. I mean directionally? Does it have to face a certain way when installed?
clockwork:
Looking very nice. How did you hide the joystick bolts?
acevedor2:
I used 1/4 20 x 1/2 flat head machine screws and then countersunk them from the top. After I did that I puttied over them and sanded flush. Obvious downside is that if I ever need to change out the base plate of the joy or decide I want a different kind of joy, it will not be as easy. That said, I was willing to take the risk because I like how it looks flush.
