Hmmmm...metal switch tops instead of the plastic ones...?

Anodized in various colors and LASER etched with the icons?

I ordered some Carling switches as well as a RockRack (APEM) switch. I'll compare the quality and brightness, then decide on which ones to use.

Hey Lynn, I too am interested in seeing some pictures as well as buying some switches - I will be watching this thread for the upcoming info!

Or if you want just the cart end, but not a complex "store" -- I've been impressed with these folks over the years...single page checkout: http://www.foxycart.com (It's a bit of a different approach...don't use them now, but did for a project. Was happy.)

I passed all the info along to Lynn as he bought a laser engraver. However, I haven't heard from him in a few months now. I didn't follow up with Apem too much to see if we could buy the switches, but I could look back into it. A lot of interest for these, and I thought that Lynn was right there with getting them done. I'll reach out to him again to see if he's still planning to do it. If not, I'll take back up the effort.

Too bad...could have used them.
