So, for lining up my cuts i literally do all my CP design on my computer with a file like this:

This was used for the woody cab and my big bad podium

the easiest thing to do is just move the buttons untill they seem right for you

print out the full page

Tape it to the wood
and just drill right throught the paper
Yeah it tears, but it works great for proper layouts


Its viewed vertical cause it prints right from paint to scale that way

I would just grab a new peice of wood and re-drill it

P.S. dont trust the joystick bolt holes allways use a joystick base to mark/make those holes or they never line up

thanks for the tip nullb0y! I appreciate it. I should've done that in the first place >.> I'll keep that in mind though and maybe redo it later on down the road :)

I would honestly just get a new peice of wood for it and re-do it when you get the chance, Its not that hard to redrill a CP ;)

Hi,

Glad you took the X-Arcade away and made your own CP.

Where did you get your marquee?

What is the spec of your PC inside?

You have done a nice job so far.  :cheers:

danny_galaga:

this is going to be a great cab to keep fiddling with and improving. youve made a start with the control panel. maybe later you could look at getting another perspex screen. yours looks like its seen better days. you could try your hand at painting the cab. or some vinyl graphics, although i hear that can be expensive.

what are the specs? type of monitor, pc etc?
