UPDATE AUGUST 2022 : Andy from Ultimarc responded to this video that the black caps can be pushed in very hard after which they will not fall out. I will test this is my coming builds but I am confident that this is solved!
I used a DYMO Letra Tag with clear labels. It only gives characters but enough to scale size, bold, 3D letters. Used to indicate 'Play' & 'Coin' buttons; start & select words would require smaller fonts to fit in button window.
Just a tip for future custom buttons... Try using a Cricut or find someone that has one. The cricut printer can print on the vinyl and also cut out the perfect circles for you. So all you have to do is peel off the individual circles and stick them on your buttons! Cricuts are the best investment!
Thank you for all your information videos! My favorite part of this particular video is the brutal honesty and first failed attempt with... "this looks terrible, wow, it looks like shit".
Thanks Daniel, but they only sell them in sets of five with the inserts. I guess I have to just order them like that. I figure I can just order the clear caps without the inserts.
Nice, thank you for the tutorial! Do these baltops work on the original sanwa these sticks are immitating? Like the idea of switching the Restrictor gate, but using the octogonal gate myself, these would not work.
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades thanks, yeah I figured that out, they are 10mm wide. Was trying to get a compatible transparent bubble ball top, but definitely nothing in the 10mm size unless you go custom.
@TheDanielSpy, I tested their method and while it does work you have to press the new button with the 4 cut legs into the center tab pretty hard. It will lock it in place and the only way to remove it is by using a small screwdriver.
I recommend Daniel Spies for any DIY arcade building or questions. He has been so amazing and helpful with building my own arcade controller! Awesome service, very polite and very specific and detailed within his response, unbelievable service. I totally recommend anyone that have questions to reach out to the arcade master. Thanks you again so much for everything! Keep up the awesome videos!!!!!!!
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades looking for designs to see what is able to be done. Do you have a basic configuration you start with and then create from there? It are you custom building the box from scratch?

What was the verdict on this? Not sure I should cut mine or not.
Just as I was going to cut the tabs on my black caps! Now I have more food for thought! Thanks for your videos!
See I was going to spend the holidays with my wife but now it looks like I’ll be spending it with my craft knife lol. Awesome job as always !
Yeah that looks nice 👌
Edit - love how you try'd different ways and showed it. 😄
Yes, some things look so simple but take much effort 😅
Looks great. Nice job Daniel.

Love it. You give the details a very nice touch
Aaah! Was going to Ask where do those clear button caps come from,Now I see they should be
included with the button Logo Caps Pre-cut Inserts.

Wow, thanks for that tip! I will look into this. Thanks, Daniel
Great work!

Maybe try using a Cricut vinyl printer, using the same template, on adhesive Vinyl. It will even cut the circles.
Great idea. Thanks!
Daniel great video where can the clear gold leaf caps?
Ultimarc website 👍🏼
Thanks Daniel, but they only sell them in sets of five with the inserts. I guess I have to just order them like that. I figure I can just order the clear caps without the inserts.
Is there a link I could download this for my arcade? Or do you sell them? I would love a copy!!! Thanks Daniel, love your videos!
Sure, I can share them for free. Send me an email and I will supply the psd files 👍🏼
can u send the coin and player button file / image
just as I used my cricut with transparent printable vinyl. glad to see your way of doing it.. good video as usual. What size diameter did you use?
20 mm 👍🏽

I am not sure if I get the question right but, no- the servo sticks and Il ball tops only work with Ultimarc components…

Great Video! Vynil for the Win! When you start your custom button design side hustle let me know! lol
Haha 😂 👍🏽

Yes, that works!
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades btw, let me know what you think : th-cam.com/users/shortsfkch5YgIGjI?feature=share
You cut all 4 legs or only 2?
Is it me or did you re-upload this video 🤔
Yes, my TH-cam account was hacked. Every video was deleted! Let’s call a bit later 📞
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades I'm happy to see your back... 😄
Love your build!! Do you have any plans available to build the cabinet? I’d love to know the measurements to help me with mine.
Hi, yes I sell my designs if you are interested. Email me for inquiries. Thanks D
So what did you use to print on the vinyl? professional printer or home laser/injet to get it so dark?
No I ordered it from a specialized company (the one that prints my artwork) 😃
@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades aaah I will have to check that out when I get my control panel printers. Internet company or local?
Love these mini and specific videos! Very helpful and looking forward to more in the future! Did you win the fight stick competition?
Yes! I won the competition. You can watch the end video here: th-cam.com/video/vG4yR1sQqZY/w-d-xo.html

Thanks for your comment, very much appreciated!
Where did you get these printed on vinyl?
Locally here in the Netherlands :)
Can you add the icon file again please? Its not loading or just email me the file please? Very nice work.
Sure, send me an email and I will reply with the icons.
Thanks, Daniel (thedanielspies at gmail.com)
So where could I get a job like this done? Preferably at a reasonable price, as I only need four inserts.
Drukzo (the Netherlands) 👍🏽
