Interface
The dip-switches on my interface tell my frontend which panel is currently in - games that are not currently playable due to miss of some control are automatically sorted out.

 

aluminum-panel

The aluminum panel without cover. The startbuttons-holes are that big as they are mounted only to the lexan that comes above. As you can see, a metalpanel is the most easiest for mounting a trackball - luckily I didn't had to make the panel myself!

 

Centipede panel done

Mostly done and it works! The molding at the front is still missing here.
