At seeing my mishap with my joystick box, David Flagg sent me an updated version of the plans I bought from him about a year ago. And I didn't even ask for the update.
To put it simply, "That's how you assemble the joystick box?" The news, which have a lot of material that the old ones simply didn't fills in a lot of the gaps and solves problems I was working on.
Thanks for the update, David!
