Plexiglass for your custom artwork on HRAP3 / HRAPEX

Oh man. Thanks for all the emails and inquiries guys. I’ve been pretty busy trying to catch up and organize your orders for production =)

I may have to stop taking orders for the 3/28 production soon as I don’t want to bite off more than I can chew. I think I’ll take a few more orders then orders after that will have to be done in the next week of production. Thanks again for the support everyone!

Thanks again dude! Hmmm, is someone already doing TE covers then? Maybe I shouldn’t compete, lol. How’s the Polycarbonate working out? I opted not to use it due to the more expensive nature and that it scratches more easily. But have you found yourself scratching on your panel from your play?

Absolutely. Please email or PM me for more details and let me know which buttons you want to exclude.

I live around SJ Downtown. Feel free to shoot me an email to discuss details =)

Thanks again everyone! :woot:

The polycarbonate TE hasn’t arrived yet, so unfortunately, I can’t answer your questions. But I sure am excited to get it!

“That would be a negative. The shaft doesn’t make contact with the original panel, and that little bit of protrusion still won’t touch it. I’ll be happy to take some pics on that tonight to demonstrate =)”

Did you take pics of this arthong?

Sent a request… hopefully you haven’t stopped taking orders in just yet. :wink:

Once you figure out the mounting solution for the clear plexi, I’d love to get my hands on one.

Hey, if the TE vewflix panel is what you need, Madcatz is supposed to be sending me one to replace one that came with a huge dent on it. If it could help you out or get me a discount, i’d be willing to send you the one I’m going to pull off when it comes in (No idea how long that will take.)

id be very interested if you started making them for HRAP1’s (the button layout is different) and shipped to the UK

Email sent :slight_smile:

Ya know, I actually did. Then I got so wrapped up I totally forgot to post it. Arrrgh, bubble head. But thanks for the reminder. I’ll post it up for you tonight. I’ll set an alarm reminder. lol. But you’ve got pretty good clearance. That shaft ain’t touchin nutin. :tup:

Well, a HRAP 1 happens to come upon me, I’ll see what I can do. But that probability might very low =(

I have a b-day party this weekend in which I’ll have my friends bang on the current mount solution to test it out. I’ll report my findings :wink:

This is an excellent idea! As long as that dent doesn’t affect the button and screw placement I think we can work something out. I’ll PM ya.

Oh wow dude, the quality is amazing.

I’m verrrrry interested in getting one.

Curious, are the stock pins/screws long enough to accommodate the extra width that will be added by the plexi-plate? Or do we have to buy longer screws?

Stock screws are more than long enough. They’re like 3/4" long. Plenty space left even for my 1/8" thick ones =).

I live in San Jose also…would you like to attempt to make one for an SE Stick?

i do have a mirror top sticker off a HRAP1 just sat here i could pos send you so you could make a up a template , lmk

Thanks

UPDATE 3/19/09 4:00pm - The 3/28 production queue is now full. I will concentrate on getting all current orders out first before determining the next production date. Feel free to email me with your interests and other inquiries. If you would like to order at this time, just email me and I’ll add you to my next production list =). Thanks again everyone!

For those who emailed me before this time, you’re still in my 3/28 queue. I just haven’t had a chance to return all your emails. Please bear with me, but you will get a reply from me soon enough. :wgrin:

If you’re offering to use your SE to make a template, thanks, but I may not get to the SE any time soon. With all the orders to fulfill I’ll have to play it by ear. But to create the SE it’s going to take some time and trial and error. I would need to have an SE panel for at least a weekend’s worth.

Basically, it may not be too convenient to play around with your panel =). Considering I probably won’t have the time to try and make the SE’s for at least a month, maybe by then I can get my hands on one from the restock. Maybe :wink:

Hmmm, I might be able to make that work. I can’t really use the sticker to make the template because it’s not hard enough for me to trace with the router, so I’d end up trying to free-hand some of the curves anyway (which isn’t great for accuracy).

However, the panel shape should still be the same shape, but we just have a difference of button placements right? I’ll prob use the HRAP3 template for the overall shape and use your sticker to see where the hole placements are. It’ll still be a bit of work, but might be worth a try. PM or Email me a pic of your sticker sheet so I can see if I might be able to use it =)

Yeah, I am offering the use of my SE stick.

When you finish up with your current projects and wish to create one, PM me and we’ll set something up.

Just picked up a panel today. Thanks arthong. I still am waiting on parts so can’t wait to throw it on. The quality is top notch. I encourage all you HRAP owners to try it out. Arthong was totally cool about explaining care and maintenance. Gonna work on a template now.

Thanks again, Dark, and it was a pleasure meeting you! (Dark grabbed the last piece of 1/8" that I had an extra of, incase someone’s wondering how I magically produced more, lol). Looking forward to seeing your completed mod!

Thanks again for the offer. Will seek you out when the time comes =)
