You're right, thanks!  Updated.

I just noticed an item on Ultimarc and I am wondering if anyone thinks these things are necessary.  They are Joystick "Blind Hole" Mounting kits.
http://www.ultimarc.com/controls.html#mountingkits
It seems like I could just mount the joystick fairly easily without these, but maybe I'm being naive.

They are extremely nice to use.

darnit, I literally just clicked submit on my order.  Oh well, if I make another order in the future I can get them.  I have already mounted 1 joystick using some screws and it seems quite fine and stable.  But I'll read your review.  Maybe I can find some of these in a regular hardware store anyway.  They seemed overpriced on Ultimarc.

Just wanted to comment that Ultimarc has lightning fast delivery (DHL).  I ordered it right before my last post which was on a Friday evening and I got my package in the mail today (Tuesday).  Even with a US Federal Holiday on Monday.
