You would be limited to one gun, of course.... --- End quote --- After some searching, I found a DOS USB mouse driver at http://www.bootdisk.com/sushi/usbmice.zip, but I hear its large and flaky. I don't have a DOS machine handy to test it on, but if I have some time I'll play around with it and see if it works with the gun... --Chris |

Thanks Chris. I have an Opti-Pac sitting around since I don't have room on my CP for my trac-ball or my spinner, so if there's any way to tie into that, that'd be cool too... :) |

Send me some pics when you are done! --- End quote --- Okay, here we go: These were done using PlastiKote automotive touch-up paint from Advance Auto. Since they're mettalic paints, they go well with the silver-grey guns. These spray paints dry quickly, too; two coats five minutes apart, 15 minutes to dry, polished them with a cotton cloth to remove paint dust, and put them back on the guns! --Chris |
