haha....there was a Defender in a 'snack bar' in Neustadt (Dirk/Capt.Kirk will remember). I always did and will ever suck in this game....1 credit means 10-20 seconds of gameplay for me  :D ;D

The overlay is a good idea, try using one button style and not to many collors. Don't center buttons it looks strange.

I wanted to add that you shouldn't use hot glue for mounting your panel...use screws instead  ;D  ;)

i found that out when i came home from work on tuesday...it had fallen apart  :oops: all screwed together now, also ordered more leaf buttons to replace those horrible red buttons - not only are they ugly but they are very unresponsive!

Also - cant wait to get started on CP2 but want to receive the overlay first!

removed the horrible red microswitch buttons that were convex? (get confused between the two) and replaced them with gold leaf concave? (get confused) buttons :)

CPO ordered for V2, and crimp connectors too :D
