| How does one mount a trackball in a cocktail? |
| (1/1) |

Hi all... I am finally getting around to putting my cocktail together which I ordered from Arcade Depot. Mostly everything is coming together fine, but I did run into one snag... the end to end control panels (11") were custom made to fit a 2-1/4" trackball. I ordered the trackballs from Ultimarc. Now my dilemma is that I have no clue as to how to mount the trackballs in the CP. There was not enough room for a mounting plate, so I had Arcade Depot drill the holes into the CP to match the holes of the trackball. And of course, my luck, the trackballs I ordered did not come with any mounting hardware. Do anyone know what hardware would be best to mount these Ultimarc trackballs in the CPs? Thanks! |

i've always used carriage bolts to hold my trackballs in. |

Thanks for the reply... What kind of trackball do you have in your cab? What size bolts did you use? Thanks! |

i have a 3" wico trackball that i got from an old golden tee cabinet that i modified. it already had bolts in it when i got it...i can measure them tomorrow...it's a little late now. depending on the thickness of the panel, these may work: http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=74&products_id=297 |
