**FINISHED** Re-Vamping my Control Panel, any advice on my concept designs?...
Chris:
From my own experience: You WILL catch your fingers on that spinner knob playing Golden Tee.
FrizzleFried:
One was a HAPP Super the other a Competition. But they have both been replaced by two blue comps.

Countersink Carriage VS Wood Screw from Bottom:
Use the countersink method. Trust me. We've tried every possible method for making the bolts disappear and screwing from the bottom is the *worst* option. Countersinking some bolts is a 1000x more secure. You could also go with T-nuts.
BamBam:
I have a similar setup and I use the trackball with my right hand. When playing golf, my hand hits the player two joystick.

I tried her out, and I must say, everything works great! The spinner doesn't get in the way of my Golden Tee Madman-like trackball use. And since I mounted the spinner directly above the trackball, I play some driving games with one hand on the spinner (Steering) and the other on the trackball underneath (Analog Gas Pedal) it seems to work rather well.
:cheers:
