Yeah, i agree, it doesnt look quite as nice. But its basically the difference between a little work and a lot of work. Ive always fancied myself as not being lazy but so I may end up going back the other way. I may end up making both and then whatever I dont use, offer up to the wolves. Here is a pic of the first set of templates on my bike (just cardboard at this point). What is your take on these?

i've still got one ace in the hole left.
paint is goint to be high gloss black. plain and simple.

i do like the gold.

Wouldent it be easier to make some checkpoints on the  drawings and scan it, aka if there is a a couple of points where you know the distance between.... lets say 10 cm ! And make them metric and inches so we all can play  

Nightrain, ive stolen your picture, i hope its all right, otherwise hit me  
Do any of you think this could hold, maby the sides should be a bit more high !

Kewl  , That last one looks kind of jetsons-esqe'. I decided to go with the easy way and just move the existing controls forward. I cut templates out of cardboard, thean 1/8 inch sheetmetal. I then dropped those templates off at the machine shop and told them to duplicate my templates out of 1/4 inch steel. I will update the board for sure and let you know how they came out.
