Title: Custom Flat Front Control Panel for Dynamo HS-2
Post by: copyimitation on July 31, 2015, 01:39:49 pm

This is a custom flat front control panel that i had made for me. I am extremely happy with the way that it turned out. Also, the only thing that i had to pay for was the hinge. My uncle works at a machine shop and has friends at a metal shop, so he got me the sheet metal and the metal bent for free. Then he cut all of the holes for me and had another guy in his shop do the welding.

Yeah, the original Superstars cab had a flat front so you could read the logo. I didn't like how the logo was down on the curve so you could barely see it. A lot of work just to read an expensive logo hahahah. I'm pretty happy though.

This whole website is about putting a whole lotta money and work into little things that would mean little to anyone else. Isn't it great  ;D

Yes it is. I don't even try to think of some of the money i spend on projects. I just enjoy the end result.

Hey man you still have those joysticks for sale?

Sorry for the necrobump but me and some peeps were talking about the control panels on these dynamo cabs and I contneded that while aesthetically beautiful they sort of end up a bit too angly for some tastes.

OP if you're still around I wonder if you decreased the angle of the playable surface, and if you have any measuements for your panel?

Otherwise check out what this guy did on his Dynamo bros.

I've made my own custom flat panels for Dynamos. It's not to hard if you have access to what you need.
