How to: Install Custom Labels in Happ Pushbuttons
« on: November 13, 2009, 10:33:53 pm »
I needed some custom labels in a couple pushbuttons, so I took pictures and made an Instructable.  It's really quite simple but I figured it would be helpful for the newbies and those who are not mechanically inclined and couldn't figure out how to open the buttons.

Here it is:
http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-Custom-Labels-for-Happ-Pushbuttons/
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

Seems cool, but you have to become a paid member to download the pdf or view your tutorial.  I am not big on paying for what we share here.  Thanks though.
Galaga... Was there any other game?

Hmmm...  I'm not exactly sure how Instructable's membership works these days.  I signed up for free a few months back and have been able to view and download everything on the site.  Hopefully if I'm getting something I'm not supposed to they don't figure it out and take it away.  ;D

I'll post the PDF here so nobody has to go through the trouble of signing up if they don't want to.

Thanks Crash.  Maybe I overlooked something on the site.

According to Instructables' own sign up page you didn't.  It clearly states that you need to be a Pro member to D/L the PDFs.  I have no idea why I can since I'm not paying them for anything...

Same here. I've been a member for over two years and haven't paid a dime, yet I was able to download the PDF no problem.
