An odd idea for a spinner.
« on: April 05, 2003, 12:32:46 am »
Any one ever consider making the actual knob of their spinner a fully functional joystick? It would be extreamly tricky getting it setup so that the sensors wouldn't get bumped into while it was being used as a joystick, and the end product would be a rather 'stiff' spinner, but I believe it would be decently neat.

Doesn't seem too odd for me, cause it would turn out to be an rotating joystick  ::)  Like the ones you can buy around at Happs or so. I have two of those on my cp. Actually they don't spin freely, you really have to twist the grip.
