Title: Lame-est Control Panel EVAR - spinner panel
Post by: Timoe on December 21, 2005, 08:03:26 pm
I put this together with an Oscar Spinner and a mouse hack.  I cant wait to finish a real cab to put this spinner in it.  I can spend hours with this simple control playing games from 1980.

Think I'd have gone with silver screws to complement the mame logo on the spinner  ;)

Seriously, what spinner is that?  There is a huge void of available  off-the-shelf spinners right now.

Since it's probably bad form to rip on someone elses hard work, I'll just say there is a CP out there with a Tron joystick and trackball that is uglier than your creation by an order of magnitude.

I'll only mention it because my first panel was a hideous plywood/contact paper abomination on 3/8" plywood, so I'm no stranger to the pain.  ;)
