WTB: trackball optic board

[Wade]

One axis of my imperial trackball doesn't seem to work right.  I'm looking for a cheap replacement optical board, or possibly just the optics.  I'm considering ordering new rollers and an optic board but I thought I'd try here first.

I have a pair from a capcom bowling. They worked when they were pulled 2 years ago.

Make an offer with shipping.

here is a picture of them.

Those aren't exact replacements but the optic sensors might fix the problem on my existing board.  Let me see if anyone comes up with an imperial/wico or happ board first (I think any of these may be interchangeable).

Thanks,
Wade

have you considered dropping OSCAR a line?  he maybe able to sell you just the optics (if they are compatible, which they should be) ... a complete optic board is like 8 bucks or so from oscarcontrols...

I have an extra oscar optic board that was abused that i'm not 100% positive it works =P  that I could give to you to try and futz with...   *shrug*

Rampy,

   The optic boards I saw on the oscar controls site weren't the same as a trackball optic board, but I'll ask if he has them or can get them, just in case.  I may have to take you up on your possibly bad board offer... Thanks!  Send me a private email to wadelanham at hotmail.com when you get a chance.

Thanks,
Wade
