Tried the search and I can't find this exact answer...sorry if I missed it. Can you put the Novagem CDR on after you have put the replacement coin door sticker? I mainly worry about drilling a hole and tearing it up. Anyone got tips on how to easily/or best way do this? |

I assume the sticker is already attached? A good drill bit will go right through it. You could cut out the area with a razor blade (cut it a bit smaller) drill your three holes and you'll be good. |

Why smaller? I guess the key is to take it slow like with a variable speed drill. Just don't want it to rip. Great idea on the razor blade though. Thank you. |

Here is the hole I cut for my CDR Everytime I've had to cut through the control panel overlay with a drill - the drill was spinning as fast as it could, and I slowly drilled the hole. My thought was that it will cut instead of catch. When I built a 2 player bartop - I had to cut holes after the artwork was applied: Notice the lack of 1-player and 2-player buttons. I have no idea how I forgot to add those, but I did. I used a spade bit with the drill spinning at it's highest speed and slowly cutting the hole. I tried cutting both from the front and from the back and ended up with some wood chips under the artwork. The buttons covered it up nicely. End result: |

Wow now that is different! Thank you again for the great advice. Looks like I need to get to drilling! |
