Smallest "playable" CP for 2 players?

hickster:
I believe this is what Shardian is referring to... awesome cabs.....I've been admiring these ever since I first saw them.

KenToad:
Here is mine.  20" is wide enough for 2 happ joys and 6 buttons each.  (The classic panel is shown.)

Awesome, thanks for those everyone.

Debating if total width of 24" (22.5" CP) is going to dwarf the monitor or not. With that size I have two SF setups, and a 3" arcade trackball. I can go smaller and try to hack a logitech marble mouse or something for a small trackball that doesn't cost a million dollars (ie the Happ 1.5").

Thinking if that's the total width it'll _probably_ dwarf the 17" CRT. Agree/disagree?

Yes, your monitor will look puny, but if money is an issue then go for it anyways. ;D

KenToad:
Yeah, 24" will probably dwarf the monitor, unless you just make the panel wider than the actual width of the cabinet.  It will look sorta frankenpanel, but it can still look good.  For an example, look at Leapinlew's bartop in Project Announcements.  Mine is a 17" CRT.  If you decide to make the cab the same width as the CP, I think you would be better off with a 19" CRT.  They can be had used pretty cheaply.  The biggest problem will be the depth.
