Final Control Panel Layout:

I increase the D-pad so the dust cover from the joystick won't cover the whole graphic.  My controls are on there way! 

I talked with one of the carpenters I work with and he said he would do all the router cutting for me (i.e. control panel inlays, t-molding slots), so I happy about that.  I could do it, but he is way more talented than I.

Level42:
Maybe you should move the Nintendo logo to under the buttons....not sure, maybe something to try and see what you like better. I think it's a bit squashed now inbetween the buttons...

I don't know functionally if it is better or not, but aesthetically i would move the buttons to the right and center them better between the trackball and the directionals.

How about having your friend route out part of the CP where the joystick is so you can put the dust cover under the CP.  This way you don't cover up the D-Pad.

I like the nintendo logo moved.  I can't move the buttons much more, they'll run into my mounting plate on the trackball.

I just made the d-pad smaller.  I think this will be ok.

If I mount my joystick flush with the CP, what size hole do I need in the plexiglass overlay to accomedate the joystick throw?
