To my fellow RR's out there:
I just finished watching the 1983 movie Wargames. I'm so geeked by this movie, that I want to install a Launch button and key setup into my desk as a conversation piece. (I already have the red 'bat phone!')
My basic idea is to have a key switch that, when activated and the circuit closed, provides power to light the switch labeled 'LAUNCH' that is protected underneath a flip-down cover. I'm going to try and attach a couple of pictures to show exactly what I'm trying to accomplish here.
Now, the problem I am having is finding these push-buttons they show in the movie. Does anyone have an idea of who makes these switches and where I might be able to find one? I'm exausted searches for the exact style...have found some possible substitutes, but nothing beats the original!
Thank you in advance!
