Here's a button box I just built yesterday. Cost me ~$25 in total.

Materials:

Image

No soldering, no software, no drivers. Just simple plug & play.

First I made a template of where to drill for the buttons.

Image

Then I marked them with a center punch.

Image Image

Then came drilling them out.

Image Image Image

Installed the buttons.

Image

Then the wires and encoder.

Image

Finally, put the two halves together and put on the end plates. Image

Image Image Image

Works perfectly!
