So quick update and hurdle destruction.
So here is a pic of my 1 cp. now that worked out great but... My trackball was the we from paradise arcade. Yea the cheap with leds. So i did not realize that there was no f$$king way to mount this thing to the cp. so after trying everything  i did some searching. Still not clean fix but someone did post a quick fix. So off to HD i went to get a hanger strap. Hopefully there will be some success pics to come

Looks great so far. I've been tempted with a cocktail a few times and I even have old classic shell waiting for some love but some other project keeps jumping ahead of it!
Too many projects so little time lol
Keep up the good work

Poosted working example of trackball cp overlay. If anyone has some 19XX art to link besides the basic stuff that would be appreciated. Going to redo bot CPs today and throw up pics later.
