Pictures of new 6 Button X Stick
« on: November 19, 2003, 08:51:45 pm »
Here's my latest creation.
Actually this was built shortly after my dual spinner test panel.
I just haven't taken the time to shoot the pics & post them until now.
As usual, the box is covered with vinyl & trimed with tmolding.
This time I used X-Arcade parts & a Microsoft Sidewinder 6 button USB gamepad for the interface.
This panel was built as a gift to my father for his birthday.
He doesn't like to admit that he plays many games but I know that he has been using Mame quite a bit in his spare time.
I check out thier PC, which I built  for them as a Christmas gift last year, whenever I visit to make sure everything is still funtioning properly.
Whenever I pull up Mame it's always on a different game so I know that he's been playing street fighter, 1942, etc.
The only change I may make before I give it to him is possibly add a bottom cover.
I think He'll like it.

That looks really nice!!!! Hey how did you do the vinyl? I could handle doing that on a stand alone cp that I am about to start working on.

Thanks,

Very nice work!  Love the clean look of it.  Your father will enjoy that immensely, regardless of whether he will admit it or not.:-)

Thanks for the kudos!
The vinyl was something that Oscar discovered over at Parts Express:
http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&User_ID=13000016&St=2331&St2=-83407979&St3=-64979128&DS_ID=3&Product_ID=120419&DID=7
It's very easy to apply & adhears very well.
This stuff feels just like the vinyl overlays on my original Xevious & Tron panels.

Hey what are the dimensions of your CP? I am contemplating making a 2nd player cp to hook into my existing small cp and that design looks good.
Thx,
