Title: Wanted: Someone with wood skills who needs cash
Post by: mattudland on April 17, 2003, 06:25:31 pm

Wanted:  Good builder for wood skills

I have had to move out of my garage laden home into an apartment, and no longer have tools on my hands.  With this in mind, I never got to finish my Control Panel before I had to leave and now i'm stuck in a pretty terrible state.  

I need someone to cut the top of the panel, and drill the holes for the buttons and such for me.  I have all the buttons, and joysticks I currently want.  I also want to put in a trackball.

So, what I need is the actual size CP cut, with 6 buttons per player, 2 joysticks, 2 "mouse" buttons, a 3 inch trackball circle, and 1 and 2 player buttons cut.

I will pay whatever is necessary, I realize some of you could crank this out in an hour or two, so if someone has a spare couple of hours and wouldn't mind getting paid and really helping me out I'd appreciate it.

If anyone is interested, I will draw up some plans ASAP for them.

Thanks for the replies!
Matt

If anyone wants stuff instead of or in addition to cash, I have a dreamcast with a crapload of games, 4 controllers and 2 dance pads, as well as an N64 with good stuff, a Super NES with good stuff, and a ton of XBOX and Gamecube games.

Are you looking for a complete box with holes cut out or just the top wood piece with holes cut?

Hey guys!  Thanks for the quick replies!  I am located in Oklahoma City right now, but will be in Williamsburg, Virginia from the middle of May to the middle of August.  I will of course pay to ship anything.

As for the box, no I just need the top piece with holes drilled, not a whole box.  

I'll get to drawing the dimensions tonight, and post it here.  As for button layout, you guys know more than I do and have built more cabs than me!  I have seen plenty of layout diagrams, and if you need me to pick one, I'll do it.  Otherwise, I trust your judgement.

I could do it on my CNC.  If you can supply a DXF or CDR file, it'll pretty much be exact.
