The control panel for the arcade project is nearly finished, and I finally have some pictures of the design. I still need to add the joysticks (the mounts for these are already installed), and wire the micro switches from the back. In addition, a nice graphic will be added between the plexiglass and wood, and trim will be added to the sides to give it a smooth, finished look. Note: Picture taken with substandard camera in substandard lighting, but hopefully should be smooth enough to give a good idea of how it's coming along. The completed board, showing the P1 and P2 buttons as well as the joystick mounts and button configuration for each side. Detail view of the Player 1 side. The most difficult part so far was cutting the fiberglass. One crack did appear in the fiberglass edge during the drilling of the button holes, but there will be a decal covering that particular part so it may not be necessary to redo the fiberglass entirely.
