I've been a quiet part of this forum for over 15 years and ended up selling my cab a few months ago. Just don't have the room for it in the house or garage anymore. In its place, I've got a control panel that I keep set up with joystick and buttons. I'm planning on building a couple more control panels, one for the spinner that I removed and one for a trackball. I had the Happs trackball in my cab but it has been a long time since I've looked for equipment. Any suggestions on what route I should go for a stand-alone control panel with a few buttons? Primary games played with it were Centipede, Missle Command, and Golden Tee. Thanks for your input.

Happ 3 inch ball
Make sure it has the red boards.
Buttons to your preference, but if you are Missile Command fan like me then volcano buttons in the proper configuration are a must.
Stephen has new repro ones (labelled as start buttons but work fine as play buttons) and they are cheaper than most beat up crap people try to sell on fleabay.
