Hi all,

I have been searching high and wide for these custom built Auxiliary Control Panels that I see are made in Korea. The problem is, one company only includes them with their clone cabinets and will not sell separately, from what I can see. And another is custom built by some guy that I guess was commissioned to makes some of his own

This is the one that apparently will not be sold without the cab:

This is by Arcadelab.co.kr but unfortunately, I cannot navigate this site at all. And I managed to find a blog set talking about making it, back in 2013. Not sure if this guy even makes them anymore, or if it is for sale somewhere on the site, or whatever. But it looks like this:


Here's a random post I found on the Arcadelab site

I hate the idea of just drilling some holes on the stock panel of the vewlix, but I would like more buttons for more control and the volume knob. Tacky or not, I'd prefer something like this due to functionality.

If anyone that knows Korean can navigate the sites and find out if there's a way to purchase one of these, or know of another place, that would be amazing. Or maybe there is someone out there I could commission to build the panel?

I've been on a dead end with these things for months, so I figure I'd ask you guys. Any help on this would be great.

It's not just the panel, there is a PCB with it. I would just stay away. If you're looking for a plate to mount buttons and volume knob, there is an annual group buy that ended not so long ago. Unfortunately it's all in Korean and shipping and additional cost would add up. I'm working with this vendor right now so if I have something solid I'll let you know.

Those look great!!!

Yeah I want a plate to mount to, for sure. Bummer that I missed the annual buy. Please let me know if anything comes up. Appreciate the response!
 
Wow I just saw that controller PCB, that thing is pretty elaborate. I think it's a pretty neat board though. I currently have a pc/ps4/jamma setup in mine.
 
Looks like a simple Plexi application, shouldn't be hard to replicate if you've cut plexi before. Also you could have this CNC cut, so many folks doing Plexi work like Lions3, he should be able to do this etched if you want it to.
 
For something that small metal is overkill but why not? My advice, get in touch with Lions3 and have it made on etched black plexi with all the legends, done and classy.
 
I made this for my own Vewlix, very simple but does the trick:

Extra buttons for "exit", "coin" etc. and a power button (with LED), as I'm running a PC with Hyperspin and STEAM with this setup.
