Mortal Kombat Control Panel Mounting box repro question

Hey guys, i have a 3-4 player sega cab with a control panel i made up for it for 6 button games, i now have the need and want to make my control panel easier to swap out (basically 6 button fighter to 5 button fighter). the easiest way to do this for me would be to make a new lower control panel (the box that the cp w/ joysticks and buttons mounts to via hinges). i have a nice populated MK4 cp that i want to fit the 3-4 player cab and the existing box is far to wide for the mk4 panel and i would have 2 huge holes with open view of the inside of my machine.

so basically if that makes any sense i just was wondering if the corner cuts where the t-molding goes are sharp corner cuts or rounded. i have schematics off Jakobud.com for the original MK cab and they look like nice sharp corner cuts, which would make my life much easier cutting the material but might make installing T-molding a hooker.

Thanks again guys!

Edit: the more i look at pictures of actual machines the corners look nicely rounded, google sketch-up and my schematic show otherwise.... i'm going to side more with the pics of actual machines as i'm sure i won't get away with being so lucky as to not have to round the corners.

The corners are slightly rounded, about the diameter of a US Quarter. The bottom corners however are sharp
 
i figured that would be the case, i have a guy who's going to mail me templates of the sides i think, if that falls through i figure i could prolly use my existing Spider-man cp box sides as a rough guide.

thanks for the info, if anyone here has a template let me know, and especially contact me if you have a cp box that u wanna get rid of :D.
