Simple and fast arcade stick build

(1/4) > >>

cudbur:
This weekend I put together a simple arcade design that can be replicated in a couple hours with a 3D printer. Instead of printing the entire thing, I used a spare laser cut control surface but any spare piece of wood could be used. It's a WIP and I'm improving the design as I go. Any suggestions are appreciated  :cheers:

Me too. Here is a picture of the joytick unmounted. I beleive he intends to only use the center mounting holes in the joystick plate. Hmm.



I'm also confused by the slots cut on both sides.

Ginsu Victim:
^I understood his intention with the mounting, but still found it confusing.

The slots didn't even need mentioning. They make no sense at all.

cudbur:
Sorry for the confusion. I meant to encourage the use of whatever piece of wood the reader has on hand for the top plate. I had this left over top surface from a previous build but there's no purpose for those slots. The slots in the top plate are left over and should be ignored. You can see how they're used to slide and lock in place here:

All the sanwa joysticks I've purchased always had those 2 center screws holes. 4 seems overkill. Hasn't posed a problem for me yet...
