Just incase others are wondering. --- End quote --- I thought the lower part of the shaft had a fatter section (to prevent the stick falling through the centre hole) which would not allow the wash to come off. I might be wrong... |

Oscar shows one way to do this on his site. --- End quote --- What Megashock said is right. Oscar does a great job here (as always), but he's using plexi. He (& I) do not want to use plexi...so wood is certainly not ideal for under panel washer mounting. The only way around it I can think of is to use a metal mounting plate mounted flush into the wood. While I agree most classic games have the washers underneath, many newer games have washers on top. In particular cabs which use Jap-style sticks as these (usually) do not have the recess that Happ sticks have - I expect you could get around this by spacing the sticks down slightly with washers. |
