Do you still have the original piece? Mine did the same a couple years ago, and I was able to reuse it, since it was originally longer than it needed to be. IIRC, I just drilled a hole farther up for the top screw, and made a small notch to butt against the bottom screw to keep it from rotating sideways. It's been working fine since the repair.Does anyone know where to buy the thick, heavy replacement spring steel used in the riginal Tapper joysticks?
Similar, but different, question.

One of our sticks broke at SFGE last year from extreme play and we have been struggling to find the right gauge of steel ever since. I ordered some from Mylstar a while back and it looks right, but it is not even close to being as stiff as the original piece of spring steel in the game.
Thanks in advance.

Tapper joystick bases are unique to Tapper. They are not the same as Galaga or Galaxian.
The shaft hole is not as elongated on Tapper compared to Galaga/Galaxian
