Larger Replacement Ball Top MS Pac-Man/GALAGA Stick??
lettuce:
I was woundering if there was a larger ball top you can get for the NAMCO 20 Year Reunion MS Pac-Man/GALAGA stick? As i remember the ball top on the PAC-MAN cabinet to be bigger??

The ball top does unscrew and can be replaced with the appropriate threaded ball knob. I've done it. Don't remember the size of the threads but the correct sized ball top is around 1 3/8" I believe.
lettuce:
Can you remember where you got the ball top from?

I was under the impression that they were the same size... I thought that I compared them side by side and they were the same. I'd try it now, but my reunion sticks are buried in a box somewhere...
I just measured a pac stick, and the ball is 1.34" according to my calipers.

you can get them from http://www.mcmaster.com/.
they come in many sizes, colors, and materials.
the website navigation is quirky.
try searching for "ball knob".
then select thread size 5/16"-18 for the tornadoterry shaft.
i'm using a black phenolic 6046K17, and it works well.
the "red" phenolic 6146K17 is a dark maroon/burgundy type color.
the red polypropylene 7386K27 is bright red and slightly textured.
