--- Quote from: GaryMcT on July 26, 2009, 05:14:08 pm ---Very very good point. I can move the player 2 start to the lower right on the control panel (can't put it in the upper right due to the hold down clamps being in the way. I can leave the player one start where it is and possibly crap an admin button or two right next to it. --- End quote --- Can't just do this? |
| GaryMcT:
No. The spot where I have the 2 buttons is the only spot that high where buttons can go due to the tiny blank spot there in the cab for the Defender joystick. |
| GaryMcT:
Really liking the new layout so far. Need to figure out how to mount the smaller buttons (or some other type of buttons) up high where there is no clearance between the 3/4" MDF/plywood. |
| Bender:
if you solder leads directly to those buttons I used and bend the leads down. I'm positive they'll be less than 3/4" and you can just cut a small channel for the wires actually I'd solder a few inches of wire right to the leads and then put connectors on the end of the wires so you can connect and disconnect if you need to Edit: just saw your question in the benderama thread :laugh2: even though there there is no clearance underneath you can still drill all the way through can't you? |
| GaryMcT:
Sounds like a plan! Yes, those are the buttons that I'm using. I haven't tried to mount those buttons to anything yet, so I'd better get to that soon on one of the prototypes since I'm likely to mess it up the first time. :) Do I just cut a 0.52" ish hole straight through and everything works out, or does it need something more elaborate to hold it in there? |
