Is Mike's DK replacement joystick decent?
WunderCade:
Very cool Mike. Ever thought about having the bottom bezel lift-up bracket fabbed? It seems like it would be a cinch to fabricate. Wouldn't it?

The problem with making the bottom bezel bracket made, is the orignal plexi is thicker than all the repros, so it would be hard to get it right for everyone. Multiple parts would make it difficult for folks to get the right one.

Mike (or anyone who knows),
On a DK cab, how tall is the stick measured from the top of the control panel. I received my long stick today (thanks Jim) and I want to install it this week on my mame cab. I want it to be accurate to the original, but I haven't actually seen an original DK in years. I need to be able to figure out how much I need to route out of the bottom of the panel.
Thanks,
Paul
If any of you in this thread are familiar with the wiki, can you add this information? It is hard to believe so many of us did not know this info.

Measured my DK joystick and it is approx. 2 5/8" from top of dust washer to top of ball and approx. 2 11/16" from top of CPO to top of ball. Hard to get accurate measurements but these should be damn close. :)
Paul Olson:
Thanks for measuring. Are you sure it is not 1 5/8 and 1 11/16?
