Ideas to keep a standalone control panel stationary
jkonami:
I was thinking the clamp from pc steering wheels also, but the rubber mats
might just work :) I forgot all about that stuff. I think that will be better in case I want to angle the control pad or something (without some feat of engineering to make it rotate and lock whilst on the desk edge)
Suction cups are probably the last thing I'd do, I remember playing with some c64 joysticks when I was a kid with suction cups - used to drive me nuts because it was so easy to dislodge them if you moved around enough. All it took was just the right angle and amount of pressure - not to mention suction cups will give it some slight vertical lift when you are giving it force in a certain direction.
Thanks for all the suggestions! :)
Crazy Cooter:
The cheapest rubber mats can be found at walmart & target. Look in the area where they have drawer paper crap. It's *supposed* to be for holding knives & such in a drawer but works great in a toolbox or for holding a CP on a desk. It looks kind of like a screen.
