The Compact Digital Pinball Controller

Update 24/01/26: A request was made for a D-pad and unfortunately space doesn't allow for me to integrate one of my joy/thumbstick designs so I settled for a squashed d-pad layout using 18mm buttons using the backplates. BP_4B_ is the four button versions and BP_8B is a double set layout. BP_18mm_Button and BP_18mm_Case are the button & case (micro switch req). ... This is a shoebox sized digital pinball controller for use when you don't want to press your shift keys or shoulder buttons anymore. You will need 12 Micro switches (~28x12mm) for everything to click as intended. If you want to try out the alternative pull plunger (which actually screws in), you will also require a M10x50 bolt, nut and a small, strong rubber band. It works well, some of the time. You can still just click it in like the click_plunger version so you wont lose any functionality if you do give it a go. Also , you might need to trim/bend one of the legs on the micro switch so it doesnt interfere with the Top.stl part. Apart from the micro switches (bolts, rubber bands etc) everything is 3d printed but if you want to use actually arcade buttons you can, you will need 8x 30mm and 4x 24mm diameter parts. The backplates with logos are cut out by depth so you can colour them by layer, possible even if you don't own a multi colour printer, if you know how to pause and swap filaments. I would recommend wiring things up using a rp2040 zero board, they are small and cheap and work well. Just drag & drop some files onto it: https://github.com/OpenStickCommunity/GP2040-CE This release will lead onto a V2 Wide Edition. Hopefully as wide as a proper pinball table as long as the test prints go to plan :) If you take the Plunge-r, I will see you on the Flip-per side (apologies, that was terrible) MY PATREON & PATREON SHOP.https://www.patreon.com/3DFreeman Thanks for your continued support!
