want to build my own xarcade type controler
« on: April 13, 2009, 04:22:47 pm »
Hi

I want to build a control panel a bit like the xarcade just for use with a pc as an arcade controller.

http://www.gremlinsolutions.co.uk/xarcade.php

Does anyone know of anyone that sells a wooden shell that i can put my own choice of controlls in?

Also can anyone recomend a parts supplier for joystics / buttons / trackball in the uk?

The best place for all of what you requested is at that very link.

Gremlin Solutions have a great customer service, and I buy from them frequently.

Since they are the X Gaming resellers , I do not know if they stock all items, as your shell case could possibly be purchased from X Gaming direct.  I do not know how practical that is with the currency conversion and postage.

If you want info on who is the best for other stock. 

Andy at Ultimarc is your next logical choice on your list.

Xarcade sells just the shell last time I checked for $20 US.  I have one that I was going to use for a Test Bench eventually.
