Sometimes you can create "whiz"....
My control panel had a PC trackball ripped out of a keyboard/mouse combo. It was a good size, about 2", but had no "whiz".
As I rebuilt my control panel, I took a closer look at my whizless trackball. I noticed that one of the bearings didn't spin well, so I gave it a shot of WD-40, and moved the bearings around so that the best bearings were aligned vertically.
This definately helped the whiz factor, but the ball was far too light; more weight was needed to increase whiz. I was in the process of ordering stuff from Bob Roberts anyway, so I ordered a 2-1/4" Atari trackball ball. (Not that I can tell the difference between the trackball and a cue ball!) The ball was larger than the plastic ball the trackball originally came with, and wouldn't reach the tiny rubber rollers, so I replaced the original rollers with sections of Pentel mechanical pencil erasers. I also had to add a couple of washers to my mounting bolts to deal with the extra height of the ball.
Now I got a good spin, but it spun so well that backspin was a problem. I took out the encoder wheels and carefully broke out two out of every three spokes to reduce the resolution.
Putting it all back together, I fired up Golden Tee Golf for the PC.... whizzzz! World Class Bowling was equally whizzy! It was a lot of work, and I did have to spend $8 in parts, but since I already had the trackball, it was still cheap.... and now I have a trackball with an authentic arcade ball and decent arcade feel....
