« on: July 11, 2002, 07:56:49 am »
anyone know of a pedal that looks similar to a time crisis pedal but does not carry the 200+ price of it

What about Happs 'Modular Pedal' (50-8194-00)?

Not exactly what you're after (thinner, more like throttle) but maybe it would do (for $50).

Try for an analog pedal so you can use it for racing games.  

What emulator/program are you using?  

Make sure you can convert the analog into digital for those games.  If you hack a joystick, you shouldn't have a problem with this in that most newer joysticks can convert to a keystroke.  (there is a tsr program to do that also)

well you can open up a cheap time crisis pedal for psx and see if you could hack it..i think its analog...they cost less then $10 so even if you dont figure how to hack it...its only $10 that you might loose...although i never did such thing...good luck and if you figure something interesting with those cheap pedals,make sure you post here. :)

If you want a good big metal one.. you could probably build one to be hacked pretty easy.

Find some metal... scavenge them if you can... Go look around builders square and I bet you cna find something.  Get two flat pieces... one for the bottom, and one for the actual step.

get two hinges for the front.

get some fittings for the bottom to attach to your cabinet.

add two bars/flat metal on each side that stick out the top plate...and go into two cut slats in the cabinet.  I would look for some T type fittings.. should be cheap.

Then on one side, have it trigger a leaf switch (if you want digital only)...

and the other side, have it attach to a spring.  Either that, or a pillow, or something... something to push it up.  

You might want to do the trigger on a 3rd pole in the middle and two on the sides with springs.

Check the construction materials area at Home Depot.  They've got all kinds of heavy metal "strong ties" in various bracket-like shapes, you could easily find something there.  Then hit the screws & fasteners aisle for some springs...
