Leaf button/switch experts: Help!

<< < (5/7) > >>

TurboC--:
Then the magnet must cause SOME level of "sticking" to occur?  The nature of magnetic potential.  At least it wouldn't have the "zero moment pressing" you talked about earlier.

Reed switches are similar to leafs in construction, and the ones in that button are mounted vertically.
The magnet gets to a point where it barely sucks the leaves together, and creates a similar situation to a leaf.

Level42:
I can get you guys any number of leafswitches as you like, either with tungsten contacts or silver contacts, buttonholders,normal or translucent buttons, pal nuts you name it. Brand new directly from Suzo.

In fact I can get the entire catalogue (except gambling machine parts) for you if you like, so also joysticks, trackballs, coin acceptors, coin doors you name it....

I'm not into this for any profit, just want to help out fellow BYOAC-ers.

Here's the diagram that SHOULD have been attached to my post yesterday.

whammoed:
I did some more playing around with the position of the switches and it looks like I can get them to actuate at the same position they would if I used holders.  Its a tight squeeze though.  I'll know for sure when I get my hands on the buttons, only have the switches so far.  I'll post a picture when I get a working mockup.
