New Product - V2 spinner & Push Kit
usedelectronics:
Darn you! Considering I own at least one of every other spinner you have made...
I suppose I just HAVE to get one of these too!
Put me down for one with the push kit. :)

Oscar,
If you have success with the pull kit, let us know - I'd definitely be ready to buy if you manage to make it work. Even if you don't it's very tempting.
Tiger-Heli:
Looks awesome OSCAR - Highly appreciated.
I came up with some games that the push spinner would be useful on, in case anyone is wondering:
Tin Star/FrontLine/Wild Western - The spinner would be ideal for this, as soon as someone hacks MAME so that it uses the same type of control scheme as Ikari, which brings me to:
Ikari - This game is difficult to play without true rotary joysticks - with this spinner, you can use the spinner for rotation, and the push for shots (just need a convenient button or third hand/toes for grenades).
Tron - It would be possible to play Tron with push-to-fire on the Spinner rather than using a trigger stick.
I'm sure there's others, but those jumped out at me!!!
Great job, OSCAR!!!!

No Problem, believe it or not I actually got it in there finally. I just had to get a little creative with the angles and my CP support ledger.

Few more questions.
With the smaller encoder wheel. How is the accuracy? Can you notice a difference? Do they act the same with the same settings in mame?
And
If I order one WITHOUT the push kit (waiting to see about the push/pull kit). Will you give fair warning before running out of them? I'm a little worried that they might become discontinued (or you run out and it cost too much to make another run of the brackets). IE, will it require 1000 order on the brackets to make it? And will you give a big "last call" on the "last run"?
