Microswitches
80s Kid:
Hello all, I have been thinking about building an arcade for a few years now and there have been many that inspired me from this site. The first one i am building is a pretty generic one but one that gives me a warm feeling of when i was young in the 80s and my mother telling me not to spend my allowance on arcades. With that said, i ordered all of my electronics but somehow in the pocesses i didn't order the microswitches for the Electric Ice buttons. Now my question is where can a guy order these from. I know Groovygamegear where i originally ordered from has them but my order took 26 days to get to me and i was hoping to find somewhere that shipped a little quicker. Not that i am unhappy with the product. I just wanted to play this thing before christmas if possible.
Here is a peak of what i am working on

Ultracade has a certain negative connotation attached to it. Maybe a different name is in order.

Hahaha, uploaded the wrong pic actually...i was just typing and checking out fonts
Let me see if i can find the right artwork. This just goes to show you to name your files properly haha.
I think the problem with shipping is that i am in Canada so everything seems to hang out at the border for a week.

If you need microswitches, look up Divemaster127. He's a member here and has fast shipping. I'm sure CheffoJeffo, RayB or another Canuck may be able to provide insight for you also on a local (Canadian) source. I'm sure they'll be along soon.

It's strange ... I'm pretty sure that I have ordered more arcade stuff from outside of Canada and, unless I choose the cheapest shipping options, I never have any delays.
Depending on where you are in Canada, there are a variety of options ... including walking up to a parts counter if you are in Montreal or Toronto.
So, where are you ?
