Getting ready to build

bicho:
Today I finally decided to order the parts I need to make the control panel.
I am a little sceptical on how to put all these thing together and that I have everything I need.

This is what I ordered.

(3) 4-8 way comp. joysticks
(8) push buttons.  I already had 18 from a friend that works with electrical stuff, and they happen to be happ's.
(1) 3" trackball
(1) oscar spinner
(1) hangstrong trackball/spinner encoder
(1) Keywiz keyboard encoder

Is there anything I need to order?  I had in mind to install a light gun but it's getting to expensive right now, perhaps in the future I will consider it again.

JODY:
Depends...

Did you want to use any t-molding around the outside edge of the control panel?

I'd use some .187 wire connectors on the sticks and buttons to prevent soldering.

GGKoul:
One note..

The Comp joysticks you order one works in a 8 way or 4 way mode.  There is no quick way to switch from 8 to 4 way mode like a T-Slik Plus.

If your panel is wood, you'll need a trackball mounting plate.
