Mini Firestick And The Firetops

thingiverse

Here's a niche thing for an already fairly niche thing, a subset of a subset if you will... So you're thinking you want to make your own arcade control panel. You've tracked down the joystick models and maybe even printed some, then you're wondering: wouldn't it be a good idea to have hollow stems/shafts as part of your setup so you can pass wiring through them, all clean and tidy without any unsightly cables showing? But what is the wiring for? Well... Let me introduce you to the Mini Firestick, the world's smallest, usable, two button flightstick and her backing band, The Firetops, obviously the best way to attach a fire button to the top of your joystick, right? Obviously. There are two versions of the Firestick, one is stronger, and the other takes less resources: _4415H means: 4 top layers, 4 bottom layers, 15% infill and H is Hex infill. _335L means: 3 top layers, 3 bottom layers, 5% infill and L is Line infill. If you want an arcade joystick assembly that's nearly fully 3D printable and has a hollow stem option then here is a link: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5393809 If you would rather buy a (Sanwa type joystick) hollow shaft then here's a link: https://focusattack.com/standard-sanwa-jlf-hollow-joystick-shaft/ If you need a cheap and cheerful Sanwa clone joystick to go with that shaft, here's a non-affiliate ebay link to the type of I use: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/334119951114?hash=item4dcb19db0a:g:Ka0AAOSwaqxhHjfn&frcectupt=true Please consider supporting me on Patreon (and gain access to STL versions): https://www.patreon.com/3DFreeman Thanks for checking out my designs.
