Giant NES controller table with functioning buttons. (Under construction now)

[pac.attack76]

Been planning this for the past two months. Started cutting pieces today that I didn't already have cut at lowes. Some was done there and the rest, I'll be doing myself. The top is 48"X21". As I do this project, there will be pic with step by step tips, etc. Below is a pic of how it'll look thanks to thisissafety over at instructables.com. I'll be following his design for this project. Several pieces are ready or near ready. The other two pics below show the cutting of the 48x21 top piece for the controller that all the buttons will pass through.
