    Joystick bracket

    Hi, I was looking on the net for some idea to install my X55 rhino. I just find that article on SimHq about Joy Loc http://www.simhq.com/_technology3/technology_188a.html
    It is very close of what I need, it's adjustable and not permanant. I've try to find a retailer and when on the website provide with the article but I can't.

    Anyone have any idea of where I can find something similar? Or perhaps give me some idea.

    In another forum (RSI) it's said that JoyLoc is out of business... (supposed to be expensive).

    Thanks 1lokos, I had a look at those already, some great idea but I was looking at something already done since I can't find shops or home hardware over here to do it myself and in all honesty I sucks at everything above a screw driver.

    Other than these solution I only find some models of mouse/keyboard support, not really suitable "pnp" for joystick and in 100$ range.

    Re: Joystick bracket

    Just a thought/idea...

    Can't you do this?
    1.- Open the joystick
    2.- In the base, open some holes the size of a screw
    3.- Insert the screws (and glue their heads to the base so they don't come back up)
    4.- Use some nuts on the screws to attach it to some wooden base.

    Tools needed:
    A hot screw (if the base is plastic )
    A big nail roughly the width of the screw to open the holes on the wood.
    A hammer


    Which reminds me of a joke...
    A guy walks into a hardware store:
    - Hi, can you please sell me a wrench
    - What size?
    - The biggest one you have. Is to use it as a hammer.

    Re: Joystick bracket

    I don't remember if JoyLok made more than one product, but I have two of the Clamp Masters. They are large and bulky, but definitely sturdy. Since I'm not big on making a "cockpit," they are just gathering dust. I promised one to my brother. The other one is up for grabs it you're still interested.
