--- Quote from: markrvp on March 28, 2005, 06:51:58 pm ---For Pole Position, the ball top rotates left/right to turn a POTENTIOMETER inside the case. There is a return to center spring that keeps it centered. Playing Pole Position with this knob is actually easier than with a spinner in MAME (In My Humble Opinion). Anybody hacked that, yet? If so, what controls did you replace it with on your CP? --- End quote --- I'd be very intersted to know if anyone has done or thought of a hack for the Pole Position pot. |

Does anyone know the email address for this guy: http://www.bishopzone.com/bishopzone/projects/tabletops/tabletops.html His plans for bartops seem to be the nicest I've seen. |

I created my own by scaling the Ms Pac/Galaga plans from jakobud....I would pass those along but they are not in electronic form atm. I just drew them up on a piece of foamboard that I then used as a template for the side panels and top/bottom/back/CP placement. |
