--- Quote from: Doctor Ugs on March 22, 2008, 07:01:38 pm ---Cherry or micro leaf? Is there really a diffrence, especially for games like track and field? I heard microleaf is quicker , but enough to warrant the extra bucks for the switches? --- End quote --- I have both. The micro-leafs are not cheap, but they sure do cut down on the noise, and they have a softer feel. I can also imagine they would be better for rapid-fire games like track-and-field. There are other options, such as true leafs, or http://www.retroblast.com/Hardware/Review-Leaf-Switch-Brackets-for-Micro-Switch-Pushbuttons.php. I'd give the micro-leafs a thumbs up....if they fit your budget. |

I noticed that no one has really elaborated on crimp connectors. You can find large packs of all the sizes at a place called Sayal. I'll link you to their website http://www.sayal.com See if you can find one in your area, I know I did! Bought a 100 pack of Red and Blue coloured ones. Hope this helps, Xb0x3r |

Wooohoooo Received my brand new book today(project arcade) but My cd is broken, Doh!!! Was there anything that usefull on there? The boook seens to have alot more info that i thought it would contain... UPDate on project.. Base is done, and both side panels(times 2 since i'm building 2 cabs at once) are ready, just need to go get me some clamps so i can glue it together. we took pics, but nothing interesteing enough to warrant posting pictures, ill start posting when cabs are upright. Oh, to save money i used 2X 5/8 MDF and 1X 1/2 MDF per cab(saved a whopping 3 dollars on each cab) Question: Next thing i'm ordering are coin doors from happ, http://www.happcontrols.com/coindoors/40005500.htm the small single player coin door. First , if i read right, that door will come with 2 coin mechs, right? but US currency. Will i be able to hook up each slot to a diffrent credit button? (default is 5 & 6) Basically slot one activates player 1 credit, and slot 2 activating player 2 credits. Doable? I'm off to go Jam tonight with my bro, so i'll be borrowing his router! Yehaaaaaaa!!! PS: thx ids for the crimp connector post but i have a place here(one of my suppliers) who has them, i just wanted to know which size, From reading around, seems to be .187 crimp connectors. |

I have, however, heard of folks who have had troubles, so YMMV. EDIT2: I see that the OP is in Quebec -- I would suggest checking the forums at MAACA to see if there is anybody local who may have stuff like a coin door. http://www.maaca.org |
