| Top Fire Joystick - seeing if anyone interested.... |

| moloch:
I am going to have access to a lathe soon and I will be modifying some WICO command and control joystick shafts that can then work in a standard WICO base and offer top fire buttons. If I were to make a lot of these would anyone be interested in them. RayB had made some of these a long time ago. I will also be looking into making a shaft with top fire ability that will fit the standard Happ style joysticks. Just wondering what the interest in this would be and I will post as soon as I have some prototypes up and available. |

Well, Check out these two threads from last summer. I don't know what happened to conceit68 but the project seems to have died. "Topfire vs. Trigger...Need some opinions..."http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=38715.0 "Topfire Ball/Battops..."http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=38307.0 FWIW, I would like to see a trigger style bat or ball top for a P360 like a Tron cocktail Trigger stick.

I have one of the tron cocktail stick and I paid about $50 for it. It is a lot easier to make a top fire then trigger, but even with that said I will look into how to make a trigger. Thank you for showing me the poll. It looks like all of these topfire sticks fall off the radar. I am wondering if they get too expensive of what. I have a stack of Command and Control sticks that I am going to have to modify no matter what and I have access to this lathe starting in about a month. I will continue posting here with updates. |

Just as a side note the P360, Happ Ultimate, and Competition use the basic same shaft dimensions, so if I can make a ball top fire for one it will not be tough to make one to fit any of them. I do not have a P360 but I do have a lot of Ultimate and a few Competition sticks for comparison and sizing, but based on everthing else Happ's does I am pretty sure that the dimensions are the same for the P360. |

The P360 shafts ARE NOT the same diameter as other Happ sticks. They are the same diameter as WICO shafts as the P360 was originally a Wico product. Dimensions for several shafts is in one of the threads linked above. Conceit68 got married and that was the end of that. ;) |
