They are at a 45 degree angle and the lower button will be the flipper and the higher button will be the Nudge. When you stand at a Arcade system you find that you leaning forward a little to play games and your arms are at a angle so even though you middle finger is longer than you second finger because your angled your fingers are naturally allied to the buttons.

Well i Primed the CP (gray) and sanded it down with grade 200 wet and dry and it now has a near perfect smooth finish ready for the first black coat. all so got some Plastic for the top. Ive routed it into shape and it's ready to be fitted. I used a very low setting for the router and it made prefect shape of the Cp. Problem is while routing i knocked and smashed my camera on the floor. So no pics atm. Need to sort out my camera.
All so been doing some other work but its mainly little fiddle bits that are not worth chatting about lol ....

Time for a small Update.
Well i have put in the shelfs and allso been working on the Doors for the front.
Here you can see the work done on the front.
I then did the door with White plastic Spay can undercoat as per OMDs build logs and then the surrounding frame with black plastic under coat. Once that had dried i used Grit 2000 wet and dry and sanded down . I then did a fine mist of white on the black and black on the white and again rubbed it down with 2000 Grit wet and dry. This revealed a fair few dimples and large deep air lines marks on the wood so i filled them and sanded it down again. I then re undercoated it all.
Iafter 24 hours in the airing cupboard and a pre warning to every one in the house to stay out i then pulled them out to find a grate big dent across one of the door (was i annoyed i think so) My kids had thrown in some plastic toys and damaged them ...
So again after filling and redoing the under coat and another 24 hours i then used Gloss white car spay paint on the doors and Matt black on the frame work. And again after sanding down with 2000 Grit wet and dry and re doing it all again a few times i then left them 24 hours to harden ad dry but this time i fitted a lock on the airing cupboard to stop any mishaps lol ....

Once the 24 hours was up i then re sanded them down with 2000 grit wet and dry and applied several coats of clear Lacquer and left them for 8 hours and then wet and dried and re lacquered them. Once that was done and dryed after 24 hours i then fitted the locks.
I still need to polish them but ill do that laster on. Pics below ...

Wow dude - nice job on those doors. Any chance you could provide links to the paint you used? Was it just spray from a can or do you have a paint gun? Looks factory fresh! :cheers:
