Termination Station.... I read all of the posts here and decided to do one for myself. iPaq, Happs sticks, Oscar Model 1 and an Imperial Trackball. Based in part on the Showcase Cab but since I couldn't find plans I created my own. 31" TV someone gave me because the tuner is bad (works great on Line-In though). Running Mame32. Pics are X-Box running my Son was playing Halo at the time. Video switch box switches between the two. Still to do. SIDEART and a Website of course. http://www.birdtales.com/left.jpg http://www.birdtales.com/right.jpg http://www.birdtales.com/center.jpg http://www.birdtales.com/controls.jpg So what do you think? |

Just the middle of one color inside the outside of another. And I didn't bend the laminate I glued it to the sides of the box and flushed it up with the router. Yes the whole thing is custom built by myself and a 12 year old. |

snaaake i'm sure he just swapped out different button pieces with other ones. pretty cool idea actually. Wow that thing is not small - please tell me that's not a real person dressed as mario on top ;) seriously, though - how doyou like the restrictors? are you using the pins or the screws, and if pins, are they stable enough? can't wait to see the website..good job! |

Of course now I have to open the panel to install them. Other than that I love them. And by the way it's 4ft from the wall and 4ft wide. |
