Got some parts today

Looks like I'll need to pick up three opti-pacs.  Over on mike's arcade he has these but I think they only work on the 3 inch and smaller new style trackballs.  Anybody had experience with this?  It would save me some chedda.

Slow  :applaud: for my homie Chuck!

Le Chuck:

Just ordered a dual strike sidewinder from amazon for 9 shipped.  I'll give the dualstrike hack (1Up's I think) a go.  Getting in that board to hack away at will motivate me to do the rebuilt on the yoke.  I figure I'll get it set up in a plug and play box while I work on other pending projects before attacking a dedicated cab build. 

Generic Eric:

some parts?  Good haul.  BTW.  If you could scan in the bezel stickers that would be great...there doesn't seem to be any available.

I got them from here when I started planning my SW Cannoo Mini.  Can't remember which file it was, labeling seemed a bit wonky.  They are 310mb.  If the link is down or you can't find them I'll try to get them hosted somewheres so you can grab them. 

I wish I had known what I was walking into and I would have been a bit more prepared.  Guy must have had 100 different CPs all stacked up.  All he does is rip out the boards and CPs and pop in a multi-cart and toss on a poorly made two player 6 button setup and sells them all over FL.  Next time I go down I'm bringing manuals so I can identify controllers and boards.  Lots of stuff but I wasn't ready to tell the "OMG I can't believe this is lying here" parts from the "meh, take it or leave it parts".  I really wanted the SW boards and was hunting a few others but he had a row of shelving 20ft long, 8ft high filled with boards and nothing was labeled.  I would have to have spent all day in there and just didn't have the time on the ground.

All that aside I am pleased with what I got away with.  I am really looking forward to rebuilding one of those trackballs.  I am currently hunting a 4.5 inch clear acrylic ball to replace the black so I can rig a light show but am coming up bingo so far.
