Time to print a new controller

[Armourdillo]

Let’s see how we get on with this.
If there is any interest I will make the files available.

May take me a week or so to see the end result

Looks promising. What's it going to be? A spinner?

Very nice! Looking forward to the result!

The fist print of the spinner is done.
Printed solid so it has a little weight to it.

Printed and mounted

Need to now add the internal mounts for the pcb and extra buttons to the rear for Credit and Start.

Awesome! Will the files be publicly available once done?

Yes, that is the plan. Should have the design finished next week.
It’s a standard 30mm hole for the button so anything should fit.

Will also put up a parts list, everything is available from Amazon.

This looks excellent! Excited to see this released soon so I can make one myself!
