What printer, if I can ask? :)

Thanks.  It's a very modified Jupiter 2, using a custom-blended ABS filament I extrude myself from raw pellets. ;)

Glad to send a slightly-warped-on-one-side 28-tooth and a good 60-tooth gear if you're interested.   ;D

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to wait and see how these work out before going too far.  34k should be getting the prototypes very soon.  Chad has offered to send a complete unit, so I can reproduce the parts and test them as they are made, which is really a more ideal situation for this kind of project.

It looks like Friday. I will get it installed and start testing this weekend.
Thanks Randy, the pics look great! I especially like the idea of re-using the original insert/hub.

TheShanMan:
I'm tempted to get the version that allows you to use the original metal insert since that would be closer to original, but I'm curious what, if anything, distinguishes the other version from the ones being sold on ebay and klov?

Do these need to be blue BTW? White would be more original.

These aren't only for Star Wars. I'm not sure what the complete list of games is, but Paperboy is another one.

those turned out nice!

While you are doing the suite, how about the thumb buttons on the yoke.

the replacement item I bought from someone was slightly off and too big. but it works well enough.
there is room for a better replacement on that annoying little piece that is missing in yoke restore projects.

Does your yoke use the ones that require a bushing . . .


. . . or this type?
