I'm not planning on using plexi, my control panel isn't done yet though. First I gotta get my trackball in, then cut the hole, then put on the paint primer, then put on the paint, then put on the pica then put in the joysticks and buttons and then wire it. So I still have a ways to go for the CP. I've never worked with plexiglass before but my dad has. I'll ask him and get back to you. What is contact paper? I assume that's for the overlay. Hope this helps.

  • Oh yeah, I was thinking about buying that one from Happ, but Doug Hansen said the pica is better becuase it doesn't show fingerprints, I guess you'll need the plexiglass if you buy the contact paper Dudah 2/17/2001 (0)
