Finished cleaning the top half of the control panel. Mildew stain remover and Magic Eraser worked wonders on the fiberglass. The 3 in 1 button looks weird but it is a function over fashion replacement for the big Turkey Hunting start button installed by previous owner during conversion from Bass Fishing. I did not cut this hole. The 3 in 1 function will be: yellow to turn the PC on (power switch), red to pause/exit/no, and green to confirm exit/yes (also tied to player 1 start to launch game from front end). Exiting from the front end shuts down the PC on a smart strip that turns off the monitor and cabinet. The yellow power button can also be held down to force the system to shutdown (normal for ATX). |

I mounted the controls to the control panel. The two Ultimarc Ultrastik 360 joysticks fit perfectly. Currently going stock with no restrictors but have two octagonal restrictors to try. [jokes] Looks like a knock off Simon game on the panel. Custom Trivial Pursuit controls! BYOAC radiation [/jokes] Next is to finish cleaning the rest of the cabinet and wire it all up. |

What size screws did you have to get to mount your U360s on that panel? I have the same one and am using zip ties at the moment. Looks great! |

Scored a working Stackerless Bill Acceptor / Validator for $11 shipped. Was searching for a Bill Acceptor Blanking Plate when I took the chance on the cheaper, but untested, Bill Acceptor. It can accept “small face” 1, 5, 10, and 20 dollar bills so the current $1 bill is still good. The cabinet already accepts Quarters and .984 tokens. |
