My control panel is complete! (Thanks for all the help!)
Ginsu Victim:
Thanks to all the examples and help here, I've finished the top of my control panel. I haven't built the rest yet, but here it is.
All Happ parts from DM (www.arcadeemulator.net)
2 Happ Universals
7 buttons each (wired as six)
Player 1, Pause, and Player 2
Spinner (hard drive bearing with an optical mouse hack)
I will be adding pinball buttons when the rest is complete. (Maybe)
1/8" Plexi-glass (Lowes)
The Marvel poster can be found at Wal-mart or K-mart.
Notice how Juggernaut's head is the perfect place for a spinner.
The pictures didn't turn out great. This thing looks WAY better in person.
EDIT: I have swapped out the Happ Universals for a set of U360s.
noobofthecentury:
what do u use to drill those button holes on plexi?
Ginsu Victim:
1 1/8" spade bit. Same as what I used for the wood
(+_+):
Where's Elastagirl?
That does look nice. :applaud:
Ginsu Victim:
Thanks. I'm too cheap to buy a proper CP overlay, but I saw on here where someone used a poster, so I thought if I found one I liked, I'd give it a go. Decided to look while I was Wal-mart the other night and thought that one would look pretty nice.
Here's what the poster looked like (click to go to site for enlarged version)
