What do you need? A spinner knob that you can drill holes in and a really long ball-top joystick shaft (kinda like the one on the 720 joystick)?

actually, a small plastic knob would work too, I;d get some sheetmetal and punch something out and glue it one for now too.
Yeah, a joystick shaft and bushing. Though I'd rather have an entire joystick and dremel away the parts I don't need than add the parts I need.

I'm not sure if this would be any use for you, but maybe it would be perfect... Anyway, it's garbage to me - I'll send it to you & you can dremel it into dust if you want to. Just email me your address and I'll mail it out (jstookey@yahoo.com).

If not, let me know what else you need.

It's called Package To You and I buy a lot of stupid crap from them. At some point they lost their domain name, apparently, because now they go by "66.216.68.88" ???
USB barbie mice were $.99 apiece at some point so I ordered 20 of them... At the time, they also had Hot Wheels USB keyboards for $1.99... They supposedly suck for keyboard hacks (USB keyboards by design are limited to 6 simultaneous keypresses), but that didn't stop me from using several of them in my control panel. Also, they had the Hot Wheels USB steering wheels for $10.00 (with pedals and shifters). I wish I had gotten 4 of them for 4-player Mario Kart.
Anyway, it's a really great feeling to crack those Barbie mice open and put 'em to good use... Currently I'm using 4 of them - one spinner, two trackballs, and a 720 joystick... I plan on one day having 4 spinners & 4 trackballs... (4 player Atari Football must get so lonely out there on the far reaches of Mameland and MAN OH MAN I used to love 4 player Warlords on the Atari 2600).
