PCB Mounting Methods
« on: January 21, 2006, 11:46:46 pm »
Hey Guys,

Im looking for an easier way for swapping out PCB's...

Instead of using PCB feet and having to screw out and screw in a board everytime i want to swap.

I dont want a multi-jamma thing that costs $125+....

a simpler solution. Like something it can latch onto and i unlatch to switch easier.

Any ideas?

A lot of arcade games have wooden top & bottom rails with slots cut into them- the PCB just slides in & out of the slots.  The problem with using this approach with multiple PCBs is that different size PCBs won't all fit.  If you used a fixed bottom rail, you'd need to find a way to adjust the top rail up and down easily.

Bob Roberts sells the happ adjustable holders for 7.00, Happ has one for 11.20 (49-0007-01 probably cheaper from Ponyboy).
