| Proposal for project TANK 8/Adding Top Fire Button Question |
| (1/1) |
| Chunce DeLeone:
Has anyone ever thought of making a reproduction of a TANK 8, How cool would that be? Also Has anyone actually seen one of the original tank 8's? I just think that as I finish my CP I see the TANK games being a crowd favorite due to its great game play and simplicity. Along with the TANK 8 theme, I have been toying with the idea, of drilling through the shaft of a joystick to add a top fire button specifically for TANK and tron, Has anyone done this, and I know about the throead that has the Command Control Shaft, I not talking about that, I want to know if anyone has sucessfully moded an ordinary ball top to have a top fire button THNX |

I was just thinking of doing the same thing. Shouldn't be too hard. The hole would only have to be big enough for a single wire, since you could use the shaft as the ground circuit. I am thinking of doing this with my 49-way joystick, not a ball top, but the hardest part will be drilling a hole down the shaft. You WILL need a drill press to do this. I can guarantee there is no way a regular drill would cut it. I guess this will give me an excuse to buy a drill press. hehe. The other option would be to look for a steel tube with the same dimensions as the joystick shaft. Then just cut the tube to length. Good luck. Jeff |
