Removable Control Panels
« on: March 27, 2007, 10:45:54 pm »
I've seen a lot of examples of FrankenPanels and I've seen more than a few examples (Doc) of modular designs, and some really really nice simple panels (Knieval) but what about entire removable panels? eg, a 2P6B panel entirely swapped out for say... a 3P (randomly chosen game) Off-Road style panel? I realize the storage issues involved, but are there example cabs of such a thing?

Been browsing the projects list but I haven't spotted any.

Nice... and thanks.

That page raises more questions though. Like does Ponyboy still sell those leaf microswitches and are they any good?

Nevermind, each one of those pics is a clicky.

MameMaster! has ten swappable control panels for his cabinet.

Thread for module #10.

I'm in the process of doing something similar. ATM I've got zero control panels functioning. :(
I have changed my nickname to "Cakemeister". Please do not PM the Buddabing account because I do not check it anymore.

Please read the wiki!

At this point he is going to need a cabinet to store his control panels.  :laugh2:
