cheap small buttons?

[Lilwolf]

I'm curious if anyone knows a good location to get cheap small buttons for admin type purposes (not ones you have to wack at over / over) that look decent.

I want to redo my admin buttons, but would also like to create a BF2 control panel and would love to have 10 small buttons around some basic ones for easy access, but are very different from the main ones so I don't need to look at them to tell they are different.

Any ideas?

Are you looking for buttons similiar to P1 and P2 on a PacMan/Galaga, etc?

They are pretty cheap at arcadeshop.com

For admin stuff on some machines I have used these from RadioShack.   On my Arachnid Dart board I have one on the side for "quarters", on the Cocktail I use them for pause and tab.  They come in Red or Black and are $2.50 each.

I use some different ones from Radio Shack, but recently Kremmit got ahold of some really cool looking 'mini arcade' buttons.   Check them out (he's selling the one in the middle, the others are for comparison):



He posted about them here in B/S/T

I'm afraid I haven't got any more. (except for a few I kept for myself)  I was considering trying to get ahold of another batch, but since I ran out of buyers at the same time as I ran out of buttons, I never did, as I did not want to get stuck with a bunch of them.  If there's folks out there that want some, speak up, and I'll try to get more.

I was considering using white SPST momentary pushbuttons (like a round, flushmount doorbell button...we just call them "pearl pushbuttons") that we keep on hand since they are small, low-profile, and require enough force so that it's unlikely that they could accidentally be pressed.
