| T-Stik Shaft |
| (1/1) |
| arcadeboy0000:
I have 2 Ultimarc T-Stiks (one T-Stik Plus) but the shafts are too short for 3/4" wood. They are playable and quick, but I would like more movement on them. I do not know how to route the board so that the controllers have a deeper slot. Is there a good replacement shaft that is compatible with the T-Stiks? I know there are good ones for the Happ Joysticks, but I have not yet found one for Ultimarc's sticks. |

One thing you can do is fit a Happ Super handle to a T-Stik. They're both made by the same manufacturer. The Super's shaft is a little longer (depending upon which groove you use) so you have to use spacers to make it fit. I tried this once using metal washers as spacers and it worked pretty well. This won't work with the T-Stik+ because the Super joysticks use an e-clip instead of a screw to hold the joystick together. The lift and twist mechanism requires a screw to work. Also, the Groovygamegear handles might fit but AFAIK no one has tried them with the T-Stiks yet. |

You know Ultimarc sells longer shafts, right? http://www.ultimarc.com/JShopServer/product.php?xProd=16&xSec=2 |

No, I didnt see the long shafts. Are the tops replacable so that I can put the original tops on the longer shafts? |

GroovyGameGear.com sells some long-shafted ball tops, but I'm not sure if they would fit in a T-Stick (not Plus). |
