Slikstik Tornado Spinner?
taylormadelv:
Happs makes them or just puts the parts together somehow. From what I was told, they have the rights to it now. I could never find another place to buy one. You may want to build your own molex connector and get three mouse buttons out of it as well. Buttery smooth, maybe too smooth in comparison to the original Tempest spinner (I have both running in two different cabs now). My only complaint is that the spinner shaft is real long and I had to offset this when mounting. I suppose you could take a hacksaw to it as well.

Its immaterial really since there are far superior products available now.

But did you use a mouse? Looks like a hell of a lot of work for paint, even with a stylus. I think you'dve been better off creating a new thread for it, though. It'll probly get buried or not even noticed in this one.

- Up/Down Discs of Tron Spinner (but much smoother spin w/ dual bearings)
- Engage / Disengage Gearing for High Resolution mode + Resistance (Arkanoid/Driving Mode)
- Turn off 2nd opto & use gearing for mere resistance
- Translucent UV Blacklight Reactive Knob, and Optional Discs shaped Dust bezel
Not bad for 2 days & MS Paint ehh ? :)
