Major Havoc roller repro - need input
Kremmit:
Any news, Oscar?
You teased us about these back in Dec of '03
You're not getting away with leaving the thread hanging this time. ;)
Gamecab:
Oscar,
I would purchase one, just let me know when you are ready to sell them. I left a nice open space for this upon finishing my own personal control panel.

Hi OSCAR -
I'm out on these. Would have a hard time justifying that kind of money on a DOT spinner much less a control that would work with a standard spinner.
I think $100 is about the right price point. I doubt $90-$110 is going to change anyone's mind. If it were $25-$75 more people would "experiment", and if it were $150-$200, people might think twice about it.
Couple of thoughts - I still didn't get the "ears" thing, but I say do whatever is easier for you.
I like NoOne = NBA's comments about using a trackball mounting method.
Also, I think you could make it simpler by modifying it to drop the lower rollers and just have a central axle shaft (maybe with gears) that drive the encoder wheel.
But that's not your style . . .

I have this spinner which I can loan you if you want to make them...
Notice it "goes both ways". :D
