wico mounting
muell67:
well I just got a wico joystick the one 8 way with micro swithces and I was just wondering what type of material these are typically mounted to should I go 1/2" or 1/4" or maybe use some type of metal mounting plate. I mounted my p360 in 1/2" but they arent as short as the wico. and im woried a 1/4" would be to thin. Also when I say 1/2" or 1/4" Im talking about after I rout out my 3/4" mdf control panel. thanks

I mounted mine straight to the bottom of the 3/4" plywood.
I wouldn't rout more than 3/8" deep into the MDF.
If you want them even taller than that, I'd go with a mounting plate.

Joystick mounting plate? I was hoping to route out 1/2" plywood
to a 1/4". Any others advise against it?

how where thes mounted by the factory in original games?
Rocky:
Original mounting was with 3/8" carriage bolts. They were for security, so they could only be taken off from the under side of the CP.
A lot of the games used metal panels, but some used wood. They will work with either. You can get varying lengths of carriage bolts.
