yeah it's big, but its got everything, it will look very similar to this, but with a TMNT design of course and 7th buttons for 1 and 2 player.

Picked up the panel from the guy that was putting on the artwork for me during lunch today. Time to start the fun part I been looking forward to since I started this project. WIRING!!! YEY, finally I get to be a dorky electrical.

Will take some picks when I get home.

That's it, got all the pieces to complete it, may need some more wiring, but that is an easy stop at radio shack.

Can't wait to see it in action.

Here's the finished control panel not populated, got the track ball and joysticks in, but these aren't the joystick shafts I am using. I have longer ones that are hollow for my RGB joystick balls.

Just about to start putting on the buttons.

That's pretty frakkin sweet.

How far I got before giving up for the night. Still got to run power to 3 and 4 and then run the ground to everything.

Not doing RGBs yet, want to do some testing with just the controls before I go after lighting.

The MAME control buttons and coin/start buttons I am using vinyl. The player buttons will be unmarked since not all game buttons are the same. Once I get the LED lights working, the buttons/controls that are used for every game will light up and the unused buttons/controls lights will stay off. With the RGB LEDs, I can light the buttons up different colors too, so 1 player can be red, 2 player blue, 3 player green, 4 player yellow and such.
