Title: New Seimitsu 'Black Screw Ring' Diameter
Post by: grotesque on September 21, 2022, 11:02:45 am
Hello everyone,

I am in the middle of planning my first cabinet build and have referenced the Taito Vewlix (http://slagcoin.com/joystick/layout/vewlix_l.png) layout on Slagcoin as well as the general Panel Mounting and Layering Guide (https://slagcoin.com/joystick/mounting_layering.html) for Seimitsu button dimensions.

Does anyone have experience with the 'new' (I'm not actually sure how new they are) Seimitsu 30mm buttons with the slimmer/taller black screw ring that Focus Attack (https://focusattack.com/seimitsu-ps-14-gn-screwbutton-light-blue/) sells? Are these screw rings < 35mm in diameter and so smaller than the older white/clear rings that were used on Seimitsu buttons? I just am trying to confirm that the Taito Vewlix layout from Slagcoin will work with these 30mm Seimitsu screw-in buttons.

If not, is it safer to just change to the 36.5mm Taito Vewlix Layout (http://slagcoin.com/joystick/layout/vewlix365_l.png) or the 36.5mm Generic Vewlix Layout (http://slagcoin.com/joystick/layout/shift365_l.png)?

Thanks,
John
