I have to make a few control panels and was wondering if anyone here has run into any difficulty with buttons/joystick hole sizes after the holes were already drilled into the panel?
The standards from what I understand are 1-1/8" for buttons and 1-1/4" for joysticks.
The problem is that I just measured a Williams and a Nintendo control panel from the original arcade game and I have and came up with the following:
A Robotron joystick hole is 1-3/8" in diameter.
Joust/StarGate button holes are 1-3/16" in diameter.
Mario Bros. Joystick hole is 1-7/16" in diameter.
Mario Bros. button holes are 1-1/16" in diameter.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
