ok, now i just got a dance pad (soft) and i was wondering, i wanna make it into a hard dance pad, so if i staple gun it to plywood, then put a piece of plexyglass or sumthin to protect it over it, will it still work and the sensors wiill get the steps thru the glass or other hard material? _________________

I tihnk what's liable to happen is that when you step on the plexiglass, you're gonna compress the whole pad and trigger all the sensors at once. |

ok heres what i think you guys are telling me. if u put a piece of plexiglass over it, then when i start playin, i hit th left arrow, but it will trigger all the sensors and think i hit all the arrows. so then celestial told me that if i cut out pieces where the arrows are, then it will work. am i right cuz im kinda really confused right now =P _________________

I don't even think that will work. I think your best plan would be to put a board under it, and either use hard foam or no foam. |

Tape the edges of the pad onto the wooden board, and wrap a sheet of plastic around it. Staple the plastic onto the edges of the board. It's worked for me, and my pad turned out fine for quite a while. _________________

It's the inside that rips, not the outside (unless you're playing barefoot and really sharp toenails) |
