I have my Sam Sho 2 game that I used the traditional USA SF2 button config. I've seen tons of these plexis, but where (if anywhere) can I buy them with the holes already cut out? Or... *gulp*... will I be forced to make my own if I want one done?

Here's the "famous" layout I speak of:

Hell, even THIS pic shows the plexi. Anyone sell this anywhere?

TapPlastics would make it if you could have the plastic cut, then draw the holes on the paper cover, then take it back. Not sure what it could cost. You'd be better off getting the flat piece cut and drilling the holes yourself. I get all my plexi work done there, but it's easy since they are 15 minutes away.

It's a little hard to get one pre-drilled mainly because SF2 are conversions and in many cases, the CPs are done slightly different depending on whomever did the conversion.

yeah, thats why I would suggest gettin the rectangular piece with the paper on it and measure/draw it out. Then take it back. Hole drilling won't be too much I suppose. The thickness and color of the plasic makes the price. Custom curved cuts too, but those straight corner cuts and holes shouldn't be that much.

My frined has the same exact cab and I'm gonna help him out with a plexy overlay and a bunch of other stuff, when I cut the plexi I'll go ahead and cut an extra one for you. I'm not gonna be doing this until winter though 'cause right now I'm working like a dog. When I have it done I'll PM you and if you're still looking for one I'll send it to you, otherwise he'll just have a spare plexi but I'm sure someone will want it eventually so no problem if you find something else.

If it's this exact same one, I'd be happy to buy it off you! I don't NEED it, but I'd like to have one to cover my artwork on my Sam Sho 2 cab anyhow. My son is using it now, and I really don't want anything to happen to my CPO I made.

I wasn't speaking to you specifically, more generaly...

After I posted, I was like, geez i hope EG doesn't take this the wrong way.

For anybody else who might someday this thread...

Hell I love it when people dig up a 2 year old thread then start PM'ing you all sorts of questions about someting specific...

Half the time, I look at the thread and can't remember writing any of that shit.

I wonder how many unanswered technical PM's are in the black hole that is Dlite's PM box.

...ruffles! no worries man. I always bevel the edge and I clean the holes with a blade as well, I don't like seeing the crummy residue on the inner plexi between surfaces and it scuffs away any sort of teeth marks.
