That's a good idea. The thought had crossed my mind, but it is still a very good idea!

Thank you for the details. That does sound very effective. I like a lot of those ideas. It's also very easy to get feature-happy with all the things that *could* be done. Just have to get something working finished and installed to get Beta-tested. Nothing answers questions like a good Beta test!

I'm using something like that, made of ABS or PVC but much larger and with some anchor points.
I was going to mount the buttons on the front, but I think that I'll put them on the bottom side (so they need to be pushed "up") to keep them out of the line of fire so they don't catch too many BBs. The buttons are tough but I think the lower the profile they have, the better.
Putting them on the lower side of the case is an easier solution than putting some kind of BB-proof cover over the things. But maybe I'm worrying about nothing?
