Wolfeel's WICO Four Inchers - Repro Robotron size Wico joystick shafts. 2nd Run.

Again with much help from KLOVer: armi0024 from Paradise Arcade Shop, I am pleased to present a second run of Wolfeel's WICO Four Inchers. These are a fantastic reproduction of the longer joystick assemblies made by WICO.

The shafts are made from stainless steel and the ball tops (provided to me from Bryan at Paradise Arcade Shop) are an exact match in size and color.

I have a limited number of these joystick assemblies (about 50 sets) and will be offering them for sale in pairs. They will also come with new E clips (not shown in picture).

Although my costs went up slightly, BUT these will be offered for the same price as before: $50 shipped for a set of two. If you buy two sets it will be $95 shipped.

It will be first come first serve. Please PM me how many sets you would like and I will PM you back my PP address. These ship priority with delivery confirmation. I expect to have all the shafts completed by mid to late this week, so there will be about a week delay from the time of this initial post before I send out the shafts.

When you PP me please make sure that you include your KLOV id in the message from PP.

Are the ball tops screw-on or are they pressed on like the originals?

They are screwed on, but the tops are secured with a glue. I have tried to take the a top off after having them cure and I could not get them off. It is a close to how they were originally made as I can make them.

The first two pictures are my shafts (before and after). The last is a picture of an original shaft. I considered making them exactly like the originals, but I was so happy with how the first ones I did held on, that it decided to do it the same way as I did before.
