| Where to get a metal-plate with screwholes? |
| (1/1) |
| AE35:
Hi all! I have a CP with some rather badly placed holes for my use, so I thought about getting a thin metal plate to lay on top of the panel, and screwing them together. Then I would make new holes (for buttons and joystick) The plate would need to be thin :) and about 53cm wide and 10cm high. Does anyone in here make something like that(cut metal)??And how much would it cost me? Thanks, Nicholas It would look something like this: |

hardware stores usually carry small pieces of sheet metal, i dont know if they would cut it for you though. |

wouldnt a wooden or plexiglass piece be easier to aquire/work with ? |
| AE35:
Hmm...good thinking! The original panel is metal, but maybe plexiglass would be a good idea. I just had the thought that brushed metal-color would be cool..maybe! |
| severdhed:
plexiglass would probably work fine, as long as the original panel is behind it for support. If you want a nice finish, spray painting the back side of the plexiglass makes it look really nice. |
