Is there a need for the Battlezone/Pole Position Joystick Bezels?

I recently got a working Battlezone Cabaret however the joystick bezels were both cracked. I purchased a cigarette burned one off eBay for $40 but still need another.

So I have been talking to a close friend who is an engineer and it looks like he can get it modeled and 3d printed for a reasonable price.

I am definitely going to make a few for myself but wondering if there is group interest in doing repos of these?


Thanks!

Yeah I saw that thread and it's super awesome but like you said it's been a year with no updates. To make the housings is more challenging because doing a mold would be superior than 3D printing however the plastic bezels are very doable.

Either way I'll end up making some regardless at least for myself unless more members express interest.
 
Removed RAM Controls links.

On topic, yes, I would certainly be interested in one. My Pole Position one is snapped in half.

Hey bud, hasn't been a year lol. Try 23 days hahahhaa. I got it 3d modeled and I wrote the program myself for the housing and am currently working on the bezel. I update the thread on big updates and not over every little thing. I'm still at work on it. But yeah...hasn't been over a year man lol.
 
If you want to do plastic ones, carry on as people could then have options. I'm focused on CNC metal housings and maybe bezels out of 6061 and 7075 aluminum and maybe brass for looks. But I'm not getting into plastic.

Nethawk86 - sorry about the miss-quote.
sounds good on the metal.

I'm in the final modeling stages. I need to get the proper screw threads and we are good to go for a finished model to start printing.
 
Did this ever happen?

I would be in for one!
