| Zathras:
Another vote for building your own metal pads. I finally got around to installing DWI on my cab this weekend and hooked up the pads with a ps2 to USB adapter and it was like a whole new experience with the cab. |

Zathras, do you have any pics of the dance pad you made? How much did it cost you? As I found a BYODP link on this site and the guy said it cost him @ $120 for him to create his own. And that's how much is cost for me to get one of via ebay. So I would save on the shipping charges. Thanks! -GGKoul |
| Zathras:
I PMed you GGKoul but just to share the info: They were about $100 each if memory serves me correctly but they are tanks that will hold up to anything - I've used them for a couple of years now and haven't had a bit of a problem. They have been stomped on by all shapes and sizes. For more info and ideas there is a thread on DDRFreak about BYODDRP http://www.ddrfreak.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=59254 The main page I used when building mine is: http://www.angelfire.com/d20/ddrhomepad/' I have some old "in progress" pics of mine up at: http://www.thatinter.net/ddr/ They are pretty close to what they are now but I replaced the pegboard bottom w/ MDF for some extra rigidity. The overhang was going to be for a backplate but after using them for a while I decided it wasn't really necessary so I dropped that idea when I switched to MDF I'll try to take some updated pics with them hooked up to the cab. |

I'm thinking of building my own pad, specifically for use with Stepmania. What PS2 to USB adapter works well with Stepmania? |
