Hello everyone,
I have gleaned much information from this board and its users, so I wanted to give a little something back. I have finished up my visio-2003-based 4-player control panel template and am posting it for other people to use/update. I based mine off a previous post found somewhere here. The panel includes T-stik plus, Happ push buttons, Happ 3" trackball and Slikstik Tornado spinner templates.
Enjoy and message me if any questions. Art templates have controls reduced to drilling holes and covered mounting areas.
Links to download the templates:

Hello everyone,
I had some requests for these files in Visio 2002 format, so here are links to the files for Visio 2002.
http://www.tc.umn.edu/~gust0208/visio/tom_control_panel%20-%20Drilling%20-%20Visio%202002.vsd

When saving the file into image format (jpg, tif, png), on the save screen, make sure to select a background color of black for the templates with art. Or, you can change the color of the working background by going:
Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Color Settings -> change "Page color" to black.
If anyone needs them in a different format, just email me. Formats that Visio 2003 can export are scalable vector graphic SVG, autcad DWG and some XML formats.
Hope these help out.
Cheers,
Tom

I se you've got cup holders at 2.75 in x 2.75 in.
You find that size to work for you and/or did you choose that size based on cup holder 'inserts' you had?

Hello,
I went with 2.75"x2.75" because that is the size of the cool metal inserts that I am looking at using. The link is below, I have not tried them, but they seemed like a decent size, but I am not sure and am rather new to the world of cup holders. :^)

WOW!! Thanks so much Gus
Do you think you could do the very popular Midway 49-way sticks too?
and does anyone know if this Happ 3" Trackball is the same mount as the Imperial?
-
I am EXTREMELY interested in reviewing your files however, I do not have visio.
Would someone be so kind as to link or attach a jpg or other format of the subject file?

You may have to widen the holes on an Imperial trackball but the bolt pattern should match up just fine.
