SlikStik Overlays Now Available on Mameroom Controllers

--- Quote ---One week turnaround time? Wow that is amazing. Arcades R Fun is cheaper (prior to the discount) and they have flushmounted trackballs but if you can really churn out product in that time frame - your a great option. Doest you panel top "flip up" to expose the guts? I cant tell from the pictures if your panels have a hinge on the front.

Yes, currently a one week turn around. Arcade R Fun is a great manufacturer for control panels...as are many of the other vendors. Each one of us offers different options at different prices. If we all offered the exact same products at different prices...you would, of course, have to go with what's cheapest...they are, afterall, made from many of the same components...we are trying to stand out from the crowd with our selection of overlays and design layout.
I can tell you that our options will become cheaper in the future once we become more established in the "complete controller" market. We still have not gone "mainstream" since the issues with SlikStik, we are still in the process of updating our website...but we are very close.
Also, regarding the prototype controller for sale...shipping is included in the price provided that it is shipping within the continental US.
TOK:
Are you concerned with the lack of material left holding things together? That setup with a 3" ball looks like it'd be pretty weak. Maybe the trackball housing could be supported from underneath into a meatier part of the panel as well.
Mameroom:
Yes, this is exactly why it is taking longer to release the flush mount trackball option. We are looking into using an l-bracket support system underneath the panel.
Mameroom:
I was in the process of packaging up the prototype for when it sells and noticed that the overlay was not cut properly on the left side in one area. It is slightly larger than the top of the control panel and pushing against the t-molding causing it to bubble in this area. It is still covered with the plexi overlay.
I do not feel like taking it all apart to correct this minor issue, so it is now $35 off to sell it as-is....if anyone on byoac is interested.
UPDATE: Prototype Sold!
