| Routing For J-Stick |
| (1/4) > >> |
| JoshuaMiller:
I want to place 2 Ultimarc J-sticks into a wooden control panel. Since these sticks are made for a metal panel, I will need to take special measures. What I'm planning is to mount them from underneath the CP, but I'm not too sure how thick I need the remaining wood to be after routing. I want it to be solid, but if I have plexi on top of the wood, I don't want the sticks to be too short above the CP surface. Will they be too short anyway? Has anyone done this, or does anyone have any insight? Thanks- --Joshua-- |

your panel can not have more how 1cm thickness. http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=55807.0 |

Thanks for the info and link, I searched around on the forum for awhile, but I must have missed that post. Anyway, does anyone have an opinion on stick length if this stick is mounted from underneath? I want the Japanese-style ball sticks, but don't want to wind up with an uncomfortably short stick. Does anyone sell replacement shafts for Sanwa sticks that might be longer? I found plenty of them for Happ Sticks, Is this a universal thing? (I'm assuming not. . . ) Thanks- --Joshua-- |

Sanwa JLF - shaft 34mm+balltop 35mm = 69mm Sanwa JLW (Euro, USA, Ultimarc version) - shaft 34mm+balltop 35mm = 69mm Sanwa JLW onlny japan - shaft 27mm +balltop 35mm = 62mm I can execute handles. I can make on 79mm (shaft 44mm + balltop 35mm). If you will install it in panel 18mm you will be dust 26mm under ball. read a little this subject http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=53719.0 |

Thanks for all of your help, Kowal. Are the mounting plates big enough to mount on top of a wooden CP? It looks like there wouldn't be room for the wire contact points. Does anyone sell replacement plates that might be bigger? I'm thinking that the J-stick might be more trouble than it's worth for a wooden CP. Are the E-sticks from ultimarc any good? thanks- --Joshua-- |
