Wiping the whole conversation, including X2's commentary, would grace the thread.



@TopJimmyCooks: look back on what PL1 said.

@PL1: I was thinking of handle texture after grinding, but hadn't thought of what/how. Good idea. Alternatively, (without grinding) an octagonal 'cover' might cost several dollars to have made by an online 3D printer; then glue it on. Grinding and then coating might be best. Easy enough to have long done by now......

Gotta keep the facts straight, even when it means engaging characters one would rather not deal with.  Too many folks come here looking for good info, to ignore it when someone attempts to unravel generally accepted realities.

I wouldn't try grinding the plastic handle of the joystick.  The material is a thermoplastic, which would probably become gummy when friction starts to heat it up.  One would also need to be quite a craftsman to hand grind an octagon.  A local machine shop could probably mill flats onto the handle, and leave a good finish.  Realistically, without detents, there's no real benefit to the octagon shape.  The suggestion of a soft rubber grip of some nature, would work to address the OP's issues, simply and effectively.

Why would you say that ?

X2 has a right to present his opinions, and they have merit.

He's being baited in a deplorable manner by gamuhar.  What's this with smugly referring to Randy as "Wizard" ?  I reckon Randy, with everything he's contributed to this hobby, should be shown a little more respect than that.

Who said 'wizard'?

X2 is a junky getting his fix in this kind of circumstance. You need to help him kick the habit.

TPB was referring to Gaymuhar.
