| Help with joysticks... Please... |
| (1/1) |
| Pioneer:
I am getting ready to mount some happs comp. joysticks in 3/4 MDF. I've seen people use a router on the 3/4 MDF to get the joysticks to stick out further. Is this necessary? Also I lost one of the black pins that holds the joystick through the "base"?... is this something I can pick up at a hardware or electronics store, or do I have to order another from happs? Oh yeah can I mount my ipac4 with extensions, tiny washers, and woodscrewsm or do I need to order "feet" for it? Oh yeah again... What's a good place to get t-molding? I live in California. Thanks. |

Is this necessary? --- End quote --- Depends on your personal taste, mine are mounted in 3/4 inch and they seem fine to me. I thought they were a bit low myself at first but after some play time I felt better about them. --- Quote ---Also I lost one of the black pins that holds the joystick through the "base"?... is this something I can pick up at a hardware or electronics store, or do I have to order another from happs? --- End quote --- Should be available from any hardware store. --- Quote ---Oh yeah can I mount my ipac4 with extensions, tiny washers, and woodscrewsm or do I need to order "feet" for it? --- End quote --- I've not got an ipac but I use motherboard mounts to mount my controller and they work a treat. Again personal preference I think. --- Quote --- Oh yeah again... What's a good place to get t-molding? I live in California.

t-molding.com is a great place to get it. Good service and selection. They will send free samples to compare colors etc. |

I bought t-molding from RandyT - http:///groovygamegear.com, he doesn't have a minimum order requirement. Shipping was incredibly fast. I live in Southern California; not aware of a local source for t-molding although I bet there is somewhere. |
