Check thewoodveneerhub.co.uk They do a massive range of styles so you should be able to find something that works. Issue could be sizes of sheet though. --- End quote --- I agree, this vinyl wrap sucks. For now I'll take it off and will probably end up just keeping the black painted edges. --- Quote from: Mike A on July 23, 2019, 10:32:41 am ---The original stick for the Universal Lady Bug is a leaf stick. It might be their own design. I am not an expert. They come up for sale on KLOV. You could probably just use a Wico stick. It will probably be more reasonably priced. --- End quote --- Thank you! I'll keep an eye out for a good deal. Unfortunately these things are not as plenty over here in the Netherlands. |

I will keep an eye out for the original stick. If I find one here, if you buy it, I will pay to ship it to you. If you want a leaf stick at a more reasonable price, Arcadeshop.com sells reproduction Wico 4 way sticks. They are 40 bucks. Same deal. If you buy it I will pay to have it shipped to you. This ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- matters to me. |

Don't you think it would be kinda bad to go melting original Wico plastic to make it fit? We'll work something out. In other news, my package with all new caps for the gameboard, and a fancy Mean Well switching power supply with 105C caps just came in. This thing is gonna work great :D |
| Mike A:
It figures they would make up their own hole pattern. :banghead: I know there are places that sell adapter plates, but I don't know what patterns they use. You concentrate on the important stuff and I will look for a solution to the minor joystick issue. |

They fit every stick I have tried, Japanese or American. |
