hallucinogen Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 hi !thanks for your reply !!it was a bit tricky to get all modules in the case ! i had to build the core on an a vectorboard to get smaller size. all the other stuff fits on one big vectorboard with dinx/doutx/microbuttons/encoders...i will post some pics of the "inner life" next time i get a digicam !the buttons are handmade of acryl ! similar to the ones of axel ! -> a very cool idea !!i´ve got some long round stick in 10mm diameter and cut it in peices of ~12mm lengh. then i did a "phase" to the top side (hope this is right, my englisch... ::))from sideview:  ____ /     \|      ||      |this fits nice on a microbutton - the ones that are used in tk´s sid..put a led under the acryl button,and you got some very good looking and very good feeling illuminated buttons  ;Dand they are cheap !greetingshallucinogenps:in germany u can get acryl from rs-components !!

Twin-X Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 Very nice. So how do you manage that the acryl button sticks to the board ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallucinogen Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 at time they aren´t fixed ! so dont it turn around !! --ones i did ... :Ptwo ways to fix :first is to drill a hole (~3,1mm) centered at the bottom of the acryl piece - so u can plug it on the microbuttons shaft.but centering is hard work without the right tools ...i did it on my dual lc - ~140 buttons --> really hard work !!-->pics soon !!second is to simply glue them with "second glue" (sounds weard, is it the correct word?)

Twin-X Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 Thaks for this info and i know what you mean with second glue as i am from the netherlands we call it probabbly the same. I dont think it's correct LMAO. Maybe it's instant stickyness :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj3nk Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 my idea is ... you can drill a little bigger than 3.2mm (about 4). And now, with your buttons lying in the case you can easily take hot glue to get your buttons centered. I think you would have to glue one after another with this technique because the first glue would get hard until your last button mounted. A straight hole would not be so good I think because the shaft gets smaller with a certain angle.But for centering you could take a standing drilling machine and fix some wood to the bottom. Drill a hole with your diameter of the botton. Now you can put your buttons into that hole and take a smaller drill to get your holes into it.greeeeeetz :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
