how do i make a turntable? would 2 arcade spinners work? I can link if you dont know what i am talking about
what would be the best thing to wire to? I can solder if needed
Thanks... If I have more I will post in this thread

If you want to use the spinner on a regular pad, you'd have to build an extra circuit for the spinner. The only person I know of that's built a IIDX controller from scratch, and used an optical encoder (spinner) is FOXFIREX
He has a page showing the Turntable circuit, but I don't think he wants people to link that without permission.
Also, have you thought about using the encoder from an old ball mouse?

Do you know what kind of circuit dao sells? I can buy then for 6 or 7 bucks so i am thinking it is just a psx controller
I am ordering my buttons from him since he sells sanwa separately and all the LEDs =D

If not, JKOC and USKOC circuitry is pretty much the same

But if you do, I'll buy the JKOC Keypanels off you

This project has already cost me $340 and all I have is the sanwas and the encoders =( i hope i don't have to spend much more. I am going to build this in a few weeks so I will update again soon
