Toggle Switches...:eek:
So I have actually been thinking of doing this for some time, but was wondering how I should actually go about this.

I want to replace my case switches with toggle switches, like you would find in a cockpit.

Any ideas?

Case switches like for the power on buttons are momentary switches. Here's a link to the site for Da Bomb PC.

Thanks, that second link was the ticket...
Too bad someone else makes them, was hoping for some real work...

Maybe I'll screw things up and have to do it the hard way after all.

Go to an army surplus store or an electronics scrap place. We have one out here called Axeman that has everything you could ever want. Look around for surplus places in yor area.

The covered switches? Yea, they have them. Like I said they have everything you can think of and if they don't know what something is they will make up a name for it.
