I have a 4 player setup. Now I'm going to redo the control panel. This is so you can play 2 player 2joysticks each easier. Take a look at

to see what I'm talking about.

Anyway, I loved how Beam (who's cabinet is this?? I know you read the board) But I dont' think your solution will work for me. I can't use a router to sink in the joysticks.

for the rest of this, you might want to see what beam did

Anyway, I was thinking of this. I would take all 8 holes (the 4 holes when the joystick is pointing down, and the 4 when angled). Then I was thinking of cutting a trail between the holes (the topleft hole unturned to the topleft hole turned). This way, I could loosen each and turn it, the tighten.

Does anyone think this might weaken the panel to much?

Anyone else do anything that I should think of that might work? I really like the idea of turning the center two joysticks slightly for smashtv and such.

Thanks
