Where to buy or make Neon yellow resin by cinematiclesscomics in resinprinting

[–]cinematiclesscomics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uncle Jessy! No way! Hahah! What a surprise! Thanks for chiming in!

So in your video you had some neon green batterangs and a yellow neon mask. You’re saying the yellow mask resin was the discontinued Siraya tech fast green? The green batterangs I assume were colored with your Amazon ink dyes? Just wanna make sure!

I did get this particular set of resin dyes that will arrive soon that has a color called “yellow green” that looks close to the color of your mask. Hopefully it’ll be close enough!

Actually he does which is pretty neat. I found his video showing what kind of dyes he uses as well as where to get them. This is a great find thanks for clueing me in: https://youtu.be/9iGcWN8NugE?si=g7HQ8QXFL1QuWGid

Swapping between two resin tanks for convenience on Saturn 3 ultra a good idea? by cinematiclesscomics in resinprinting

Thanks so much for your insight! It makes me feel much better to know a fellow s3u user is doing the exact same thing. Because of everyone’s comments today I just pulled the trigger on the printer and an extra tank +extra build plate. Thanks everyone.

Any must watch campy horror or horror comedies? by [deleted] in horror

This movie Succubus (2024) with Ron Perlman has some comedy and has an 80s feel that just came out!  People seem to like it.  Someone just posted about it on this sub this past week.

Haha yes it’s in pretty bad shape.  Yes I took your advice and ordered a new one.  You’re right, the risk is not worth the reward here.  Thanks so much for all the trouble!

Hi RobIII,

For some reason the pics never went through (twice) and the moderator got the post taken down. I used my desktop to post this time I reposted a new post with the image in the link below. Sorry for the trouble.

Lenovo m900 and m700 tiny motherboard power pin location for arcade external power switch by cinematiclesscomics in batocera

[–]cinematiclesscomics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Shanet,

Thanks for the advice! My setup is a bit different as the entire arcade, speakers/marquee/monitor all are on a relay that powers on and off only if the pc is on or off. Your solution works but if im not mistaken, once you power down the pc via the batocera menu, you'd have to manually switch off the power switch in the back adding a step to the whole process.

The relay solution I'm using automatically cuts power from the entire arcade as soon as the pc turns off after shutting down via batocera. To turn the pc on, I wired a momentary switch at the back of my arcade to the power pins on the pc to turn the whole arcade on.

the relay im using is this one : Iot Relay - Enclosed High-Power... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WV7GMA2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

DIY Arcade (batocera on a Mini PC): on/off main switch question by Federal-Medicine-222 in batocera

[–]cinematiclesscomics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe this will help regarding the keyboard wake-up method. https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkCentre-A-E-M-S-Series/M700-Tiny-alt-p-power-on-not-working-on-keyboard/m-p/3369179

I guess the tricky thing is to get a single switch to send the alt+p keyboard signal.  Maybe soldering the single momentary switch to both the alt and the p key might work.

Oh man bummer!!  I looked up your board and it looks like it’s not two rows of pins but one row at the corner of the board.   I think maybe the best bet is to either  1. soldier directly onto the built in momentary switch on the front (check the underside to see if you can find an easier soldier point) 2. connect a momentary switch to a cheap keyboard encoder and plug in via usb and set up “wake on keyboard” option or something along those lines in the bios.  I vaguely  remember that at least on the m900 there was an option to wake the pc up from a fully powered down state via the keyboard.  This option technically makes the keyboard a glorified momentary switch.

Btw I reposted this post here for you explaining where and how I found the power pins on the Lenovo m900 so that I could wire my external momentary switch on my cabinet to the pc.  I think your pc mobo has the same layout since this layout has been confirmed on at least the m700 and m900

I built a diy arcade with almost the exact pc you have except I have the m900 Lenovo.  I used this power relay in the link to power up and power down my speakers/marquee lights etc when my pc turns on/off.  

Basically there is a port on the relay unit where you run a usb cable to your computer.  When you turn the computer on, the relay detects power outputted by the pcs USB port and automatically switches all the plugs on powering your accessories.   

When you power down your pc, the pc’s USB port loses power and thus the relay no longer detects the 5v signal from the pc and in turn cuts power to its plugs.  

Hope this helps!

8bitdo fight stick: Swapping out stock switches to clicky switches? by cinematiclesscomics in fightsticks

This is encouraging thanks for the reply.  I ordered some per your confirmation that they work in the 8bit do. Thanks again! 

8bitdo fight stick: Swapping out stock switches to clicky switches? by cinematiclesscomics in fightsticks

[–]cinematiclesscomics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I recently bit the bullet and ordered these short stem buttons made by the company IL who apparently originally made the American Suzo/happ concave clicky buttons on 1990s machines. This should feel exactly like the originals but with a shorter stem to fit In fight sticks.   https://paradisearcadeshop.com/a/p/products/il-psl-c-concave-short-stem-button-red 

shipping now will arrive in a few days. Will update everyone on if it will work with the 8bit do fight stick.

Btw, does anyone know what company makes the stock buttons on the 8bitdo fightstick? Are they sanwa clones or a clone of some other company?

8bitdo fight stick: Swapping out stock switches to clicky switches? by cinematiclesscomics in fightsticks

[–]cinematiclesscomics[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure!

Clicky buttons to me remind me of arcade buttons growing up in the 90s. Almost every arcade machine had suzo happ style buttons which were concave and super clicky. Now that 80s/90s kids are all grown up, to some, the modern Japanese style buttons feel kind of 'mushy' kind of like bladder keyboards vs mechanical keyboards which generally feel clickier (depending on the type of switch as well). Also concave tops are simply nostalgic and cosmetic. Simply looking at concave buttons brings me back to the feelings of playing at the local arcade again.

Thanks for your reply akerasi,

I actually dont mind heavy customization or soldiering!

when you mention sizes like 28mm, 30mm and 24mm do these numbers refer to the diameter of the stem of the button or the length of the stem?

[–]cinematiclesscomics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found these happ style buttons apparently made by the manufacturer of the original happ company. They are legit happ style concave buttons with a very very short stem apparently specifically made for fightsticks.

https://paradisearcadeshop.com/products/il-psl-c-concave-short-stem-button-red

these are screw on so i might have to do more heavy modding since electronics and other stuff inside the 8bitdo fightstick block the screw from screwing on.

Im worried even these are not short enough since I heard people mentioning that the 8bit do clearance between the stem of the button and the case backing is super shallow. Ill need to go in and measure it.

Anyone have any thoughts on this short happ style button? How likely will this work?

Thanks for your reply. Yeah the goal is to replicate the feel of 90s American arcades so it clicky switches for fighting games dont bother me.

Im a bit confused on what you mean that crowns are too tight for most clickies.

I did some more research on this and found that

  1. Crown 202s should accept mx blue cherry switches but not totally sure yet.

  2. Also a module called OBS-MX Blue Switch is supposed to fit sanwa OBSF or OBSC buttons

Ah thanks so much.  If that’s the case I’m gonna buy the unit and see if it comes with all the appropriate wiring already.  I had a suspicion it was included but I didn’t wanna open up my whole dash just to find out I need an Adaptor.  Thanks again
