This page has my newest creation, the MiniPac, MKII (finished about a month ago), but it also has my other 5 creations...

Let me know what you guys think (and if there's anything I missed)...
Thanks all!

That's a sharp looking machine.

Are the small red buttons for player 1/player 2/credit and pause the Happs Select buttons that were $5 on your parts list?  Which buttons are those (part number, url?)

[PacFan]

Hi:

Thanks for the compliment

The buttons I ended up using (Happs) are not the ones in the pictures (regular Radio Shack buttons), although they look similar.  The Happ ones fit better.

The Part number is 49-0577-00.  they were .80 each, I included shipping on those.

Thanks again!

He, he, those small machines are sooooo cute. You have been busy. You could fill a whole arcade with all your handywork  

Love the site too. That will sure come in handy if others attempt a similar cab as one of yours.

Uuuuummm... why does your minipak, mkII have pelican arcade buttons?

@patrickl:  Thank you very much  Building these is a stress reliever for me from my job.  As far as the miniature ones go, I was thinking of doing a bunch with different themes (Asteroids, Defender, etc.)  I thought it would look cool.  

@CthulhuLuke:  That's because they are!  I picked up a cheap 'Tournament Ready' control Panel for a game system I didn't have, and used the buttons and joystick out of it.  (The joystick is used in a different machine).  I liked how they were labeled LT and RT (for the Asteroids/Deluxe/Space Duel/Ripoff/Space Invaders, etc. setup) and the 'A' and 'B' buttons (for the Nintendo Vs. setup).  The layout I have on there fits so many different games (obviously except the fighting ones), that's the one I've been using.  The only one I have an issue with is Defender and the placement of the 'Reverse' button.
