Got my custom joystick washers! A previous employer of mine did the job. They do great work. 27 washers laid out on a 12"x12" sheet, with a few different IDs & ODs for my different flavors of sticks, laser cut from 1/16" glossy black acrylic, for $52.32, including tax & free delivery courtesy of a former coworker who often eats dinner in my neighborhood after work. I went with a gear motif, to match the rest of my cabinet art. Thanks, -Jason |

I wouldn't use what Paradise Arcade is using. It's too thick and feels brittle. Not at all surprised to hear it's acrylic, which should never be used in wear and tear applications. |

Almost forgot out my Sega Saturn Virtual On removable controller hack. It has round dust washers no more. Gear dust washers! A bit tricky to implement on this, as there's wiring going up the joysticks, next to their internal metal shafts. A little filing did the trick. Pics of before & after below. Thanks, -Jason |
