LMAO! nice work

Where is the eject handle?
Awesome! Where can I get me one of those?

Why is the hazard button a screwdriver handle? O.o
Its one of those arcade handels i had hanging around. Also controls blinkers and turns everything off. I should paint it black i guess.
Very nice button box, I must say. Good job!

WOW looks very pro!

I have one of those old arcade controls lying around, just need to set it up someday.
Can I ask how much effort/cash you put into it?
This was around my 4th attempt at building a button box so time wise i couldn't begin to count the hours invested. Putting it together takes about an afternoon once you know what your doing.

Money wise: $65 + for board http://www.ultimarc.com/ipac1.html

$2 -$4 for each button
$5 for wires
$12 for box
$6-$8 for lights and switches

It all adds up pretty fast. But as i mentioned, alot of the components i had lying around from previous builds. Hope this helped.
I was thinking of taking apart a controller, and just routing the button pads to SPST switches that'd then be mounted in a box of some sort.

Think it'd work?
yes it works ;-)

look
