Title: For Sale: Reproduction Donkey Kong / Donkey Kong Jr / Popeye Control Panels
Post by: hailrazer on August 30, 2015, 09:34:49 pm
I am restoring a Donkey Kong and like many others my Control Panel was trashed. So seeing that no members were making these anymore and having a CNC machine I decided to make my own.

I drew it up in SolidWorks based on the original.  Holes were verified with a NOS overlay.

Made from the appropriate sized plywood. Laminated on the top. All holes and routed areas reproduced faithfully. T-Molding groove in the front.

This is the final result :

And here's what it looks like with brand new Repro parts on it. (Not included , just for representation purposes)

And how it looks on my not yet restored Donkey Kong  :D

I am selling these for $45 shipped in the USA. That is for a bare Donkey Kong Control Panel, laminated with holes and grooves cut. Each additional control panel is $40 if shipped together.


Please let me know if this is something anyone would be interested in.

Thanks

Hi Jonathan,

I know this thread is several months old but I wanted to know if you were still selling the reproduction DK control panel? If so, I would definitely like to purchase one. Please let me know.

Thanks!

These look great.

I'm building a repoduction machine (in UK). Does anyone know why the original control panels have the 1 inch cut out along the top at the back and the other cutout ?

I can't figure out why they'd be needed. Maybe for wires?

Thanks in advance for any help.
