I tried the template that kirk posted but after building it and going to the arcade I realized with that template the spacing was to far. I am not quite sure what the spacing is on that template but it didn't seem  like the real SF in the arcade to me. Hey maybe I did something wrong when I printed it....anyways I am now using 1 1/2" spacing.

I also think it might have to do with the button you use.

The best suggestion I heard was to lay out your control panel on a shoe box or some other type of cardboard box, and then you can try out diffrent layouts buttons in a curved layout, straight curved , also how many buttons  6 or 7 buttons...etc

Just my 2 cents

when you go to microsoft paint, turn of all margins....that is where your space is...(i wasted a few pages but i figured it out :)

Dripht:
Thanks for all the help.

I printed out one of those templates and tried it on a shoebox, I didn't much like the feel of the joystick, it seemed a bit too close to the buttons, so I moved 'em over an inch and it feels great now.

Thanks again.

the buttons are fine IMO, but the joysticks are  too close to the buttons..i plan on doing the same
