No Problem  :)  I have been scouring the interwebs looking for cheap electronic parts as i am trying to build homemade recoil light guns.  so far have sourced the solenoids, transistors, resistors, diodes, and power supplies.  So trying to pass along any good deals i have found.  all i have to figure out now is the weight and stop for the end of the solenoid.  I threw up a little when i found out how much namco wanted for their recoil unit off their website.   found some really nice pull type solenoids on electronics goldmine $1.49 each so bought 10 in case i burned up a few in the protoyping process.  Plus for future tinkering projects. 


Has anyone put together a list of online electronics surplus stores in the form of a sticky or in the wiki?  i.e. allelectronics.com
As half the fun of building an arcade cabinet is tinkering and making it fun and your own.

I could give a crap about NES (damn kids... Atari still rules), but that'd be very nice for cabs with a bare motherboard as opposed to a PC in a case.  One of the drawbacks there is having to work up power and reset buttons for the computer.  Tack one of these up (say) just inside your coin door, and you're in business.
