Little bump for a guy that makes some nice stuff:
I have some of Franco's custom dustwashers, and they are beautiful. He does excellent work. I'm sure whoever gets these will be very happy with them.
-
Are these the ikari kind, or the caliber 50 kind?
-
Thank you for the kind words Kremmit, you are too kind (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/Francoberasi/Smileys/icon_redface.gif) :) Im glad you still like them.
The rotary joysticks are 12 position rotary 8-way joysticks. This is the information (http://happcontrols.com/joysticks/rotary_optical_joy.htm) from the happ controls website:

# Microswitch reliability tested to 10,000,000 cycles

I am also going to include a rotary interface with the auction, although you have a few options (http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Rotary_Encoders) to interface the joysticks.

How much for just 2 ss sticks and the washers? I don't need the bases or the extra sticks. Just two of the ss sticks.
-
Hi mate,
Im not going to part them I am afraid.
I can make you some S/Steel sticks and washers though. Are they for Happ Rotaries?
-
Yes they are. To be honest, I'd like to be able to fit normal Happ comp sticks into the rotary base. is that possible? I don't like how the rotarys have a silver stick and only a black handle as a choice.
-
Well if you just want a black shaft on your rotarys (if im understanding you correctly) the easiest and cheapest thing to do would be to make a sleeve out of black nylon or etc.
The happ rotary joys shaft is about 1" longer than the comps so if you wanted get a comp joy to fit you would need to extend the comp joy by about an inch. You could do this by tapping a hole in the comp shaft and then adding a small extention (with a smaller external threaded portion) to it. You would also need to drill a hole in the extension for the grub screw to locate in at the bottom of the shaft.
-
Nah, no sleeve for me or extension, I want the full stick. Anyway, if you can make new SS ones, why not sell what you have right now? No one is going to buy two bases with 6 sticks.
-
Not really sure what you mean then. I you want to get a comp stick to fit as it is you would have to drill a hole for the grub screw for the rotarty mech but the stick would sit an inch too low. You may also have issuses with the shaft diamaters but its hard to tell without having a comp in front of me.
And as for no one wanting to buy two bases with six sticks? 25 people watching the auction and the amount of questions I have had tells me different.
-
Well, I'm not saying you can't sell them, I'm just saying someone buys two rotaries and wants to use SS sticks. Now what are they going to do with the extra two SS sticks? Do people have 4 rotaries? Do you see what I mean? Either way, link to your auction so I can bid as well. Thanks.

Phew!

There isnt four stainless sticks. There is two SS ones and two alluminium ones. I originally made some SS ones for them but I found that because I had a fairly steep incline on my CP the sticks would sometimes not return back to center due to the weight of them. I could have used an uprated spring to counteract this but I thought I could just as easily make some lighter Aluminium ones which I did. I thought I would include all four sticks in the auction to give the winning bidder the choice of which they prefer.
Either way, link to your auction so I can bid as well. Thanks.
There is a link at the top of the page but here it is again for you. Ebay Link (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=120161542770&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=002)
If you do decided to bid on the auction and dont win it you could always ask the winning bidder to sell you the other sticks that they decide not to use.
I can always make you some sticks and dustwashers if required too.
