Right you are.  Sometimes I take for granted that some folks don't come through here to get to the store (even though we are talking about it here in the context of this thread ;) )   But your point is taken.  I'll update the description at the store with more of the important info from the beginning of this thread.

Very cool.    :)

Hey guys,

thank you for your quick response.  To be honest I did get the impression that the sticks would be adaptable for my needs, however, I didn't spend much time looking at the details because I was pretty excited about the stick.

My control panel is thin because I'm using a coctail cab so the control panel is also quite small.  I don't think a spacer will work very well because I believe the joystick will probably be really long and hit the bottom panel.

I'm thinking about (and this may be a question for another thread) going the Ms. Pac reunion route, however, these are my questions.
1.  Will the reunion base match the happ super base in terms of mounting screws. (My control Panel is pretty permanent)
2.   Will the reunion shaft be way to short since I'm using a quarter inch panel instead of a metal panel.
3.    Any other options to get a pac shorty stick on my exsisting panel?
Again, thank you very much for your help.  Randy, I probably would like to return the sticks (although they would be awesome for most aplications) How would I go about doing that?

OK, heres the news on the versaball and Ms Pac base:
Really good news for everyone except those that want a really short stick on a metal panel. (you will need to use a spacer)
The versaball fits on the Ms Pac four different ways.
1.
Kremmit:
Folks wanting these to be shorter can do the job with a cut-off wheel on their Dremel tool pretty easy.  Figure out how tall you want it to be, cut off the excess from the bottom, and cut two new e-clip grooves.  Done!

Nice work.  I'm guessing they just arrived ?  :)

Should help a lot of folks who had questions about them working with these bases. Thanks.

But I was curious as to the plastic spacer.   Do they feel ok without this?  The taper on it makes me think it might be part of a gimble or something.

Thank You,.  I've saved a copy for future reference.

Yes, but I twist them on pretty well.
