Eventually...........

I will totally redo my control panel to recess the joystick bolts, trackball mounting plate & relocate the 4-way & spinner as well as move the 6 jump/fire buttons further away from the joysticks since I am a big dude (6ft 2inches, 245 lbs with I think a shoulder width of damn near if not more than 2ft) & it bothers me to play Killer Instinct like I am a kid holding an Easter basket.

Or perhaps I will acquire some type of "shrinking old lady disease" & just get a cabaret  >:D.

The control panel database you mention is a great place to look..........pay attention to how the recent prefab control panels are looking too as their finished product is really the evolution of everyone in the hobby learning what works & what doesn't.

Same as javeryh, I would have skipped doing the 3rd side control panel on my cocktail.

severdhed:

i would have waited until i had the right tools for the job before building a control panel.  a router and orbital sander make a world of difference in the quality of control panel you can build

I would have made mine less awesome.

Why do you regret this?  Is it too crammed?  Or you just don't use it enough?
