First resin test. First mistake I made was I forgot to add the extra inset on the top disc and a few other things, but this version came out great. Once I check the one with the deeper inset on top and the slightly wider weight well/disc well, I'll update the thingiverse post with that version...

All right, got another print run done: So, a few lessons learned: Both models WOBBLED, and pretty badly, at first. The Egret Mini version got fixed by basically clearing out any bumpiness on the inside The other model doesn't have an easy fix, as I think the "well" for the...

Quick sidequest. I found someone had made an Arcade1up-style spinner that slots over the Egret II Mini on Thingiverse, and as they didn't seem to have any restrictions on remixes, I went ahead and adapted their knob attachment in Blender to work with my repro knob shape. It's on there as a...

So, I'll need to try another test print in the future, but this time I'm gonna try resin after a buddy of mine offered. Heck, I'd get my own but it's like $700 all-in (~$300 for the printer/washer and $400 for the vented/filtered mylar "grow tent") But here's where that version stands: Triple...

Initial testing. West: Maaan, all that talk and I didn't listen XD. Decided at the last second while slicing that I didn't wanna deal with supports in the weight well and made a mess underneath instead. But fighting the support tree was less than pleasant in any scenario. Right off the...

I legitimately appreciate that. The side ones were actually the fall-back, as I assumed these would be good, but also at the time I wasn't sure if I was gonna print them "hollow" (e.g. with the top already as part of the shape and with no top inset for a weight) so the side ones were added in...

On a related note, what solutions are people using for the top plate, e.g. the one with the color or decal? edit: forgot about the arcade museum thread, will probably ask there too

That is an awesome suggestion. That's definitely on the agenda after I try the test print today. I can probably put a nice nut inset on the top, and it would be well hidden by the color metal plate that usually goes into these. Any specific nut types that would be recommended? I made a quick...

Quick update: figured out lofting, can get a more accurate ridge shape, just need to figure out how to get the dimensions on those. For context, the real thing: Current test shape. 3mm holes, I'm gonna try to 3D print a couple at the library and then install some M2/D3/L3 heated inserts this...

I've always been in love with the design of the knob for the Taito spinner, but AFAIK, there's nothing available online that comes close. (yes, I own 2 of the Egret Mini trackball/spinner controllers). On top of that, that actual knob uses a roll pin instead of a screw-in clamp, so even if I...

I've finally finished building it! Now all I have to do is unbuild it and fix all the plastidip holes. ^o^ Features: - 2 GRS-USB spinners w/ 30mm pinball buttons on the sides wired to their left/right mouse buttons. - 1 Brook Zero-Pi, 1 Brook Retro, mostly 'cause that's what I had on-hand at...

I'm about to fly out for a week but it's comin' together! I I still need to add the 25 cent "home" buttons to the back (will be printing out a template so I know where to drill), and I'll need to find my acrylic plate's screws (got some Puchi Carat arcade art coming in), and I've still gotta...

Welp, after looking around and realizing that there's no publicly-posted dimensions for this thing, this is about as close as I'm gonna get to a 3D model of the Taito spinner knob without just straight up buying one and measuring it out myself. From photos and some talk, I did gather: It's...

Walp, here's what I'm doing in the meanwhile: It's a GRS USB spinner with a blue decal on top installed just high enough to not touch the other buttons. These are all temporary buttons but I'm thinking about mapping left/right mouse where the two white ones are and regular joystick buttons...

On a side note, this topic is basically the holy grail I've been looking for for months. For the life of me, I've never found an actual photo of a Puchi Carat arcade machine with two spinner knobs on the main panel. I'd almost given up hope until I found this thread. I'm hoping that eventually...

I'm pretty sure the games list amounts to: - Puchi Carat - Some obscure Akranoid sequel I've been fiending to find an Astro City-compatible panel that will fit 28mm sockets for spinners 'cause as much as I like Taito's double-spinner panel, I don't think I'm brave enough to wire up and...

BTW, on somewhat of a side note: Is the VCD-18-C casing identical to the old Boardmaster Supergun? I swear it looks the same as the photos but in matte black and without the switch cutouts.

It was in looking for the SVG that I realized I've basically lost my entire old Windows profile folder, which included a TON of WIP arcade stick art. Just saddened the mess outta me, I shoulda made backups -_-. HOWEVER, for the love of the game, and because I know Inkscape, I literally just...

1. I made an SVG, printed it out on my laser printer, put an adhesive lamination sheet on it, and cut the corners with a rounded corner cutter. It's mostly there to hide all the turbo switches from the original HSS-0136. In a better world I'd put a PS4 Touchpad on it and wire it up to the Brook...

How could I not actually ever post the way my sticks turned out?! Alberto did frickin' brilliant work and I feel bad for not showing them off here: https://imgur.com/a/sPhXKdY I never did the Twin Stick setup but mostly because I broke down and bought a VCD-18-C. edit: Replaced the gallery...
