Good point. Trouble is I have that gap between the blade and the bearing, hmmmm

Use the football template on a small scrap of 1/4 something-or-other, then, instead of cutting out the football, just use a 3" holesaw on the center instead. Sandwich this between the mount and the plexi, or just under the mount.

This way you would get a really nice lit area around the base of your stick. You could do it RGB and run it to your PAC64 to be extra fancy.

Kinda what you're talking about, but dustwasher is mounted under the panel:
RGB and controlled with a PACLED64. Just a piece of plexi cut to the size of the joystick base and edge lit with a few RGB LEDs.
EDIT: Didn't notice LeChuck already referenced my joystick lighting on the last page. Good looking out. :cheers:

yeah Similar, although my approach was to light up the whole dustwasher itself from underneath.
