Tornado push/pull conversion or new?
« on: February 05, 2006, 08:28:44 pm »
I'm looking to take my experience in using my arcade and convert my frankenpanel into something more streamlined and useful.  One idea that I've had kicking around was to use my Tornado spinner for the game-selector, since I already have it and I rarely use it (not that it's exclusive, but the primary use changes which could affect placement).

Even if I could find one, I'm not ready to drop $120 for Oscar's push/pull spinner.  Have any of you guys seen any conversions for my Tornado spinner?  Or how about a cheaper option than Oscars push/pull?

I welcome any ideas you brilliant people have. :)

-Steve.

1up did a hack to make an Up/Down Tron spinner

Go to his site http://www.1uparcade.com/ and select "Up/Down Tron spinner" on the right side of the page.

I have no idea what your Oscar spinner looks like, but maybe you would be able to get some ideas from what 1up did ..... good luck

  Thanks for the tip!  I'll think about it and see if I can apply his hack to the Tornado spinner.
