Vectrex Joystick Retainer

thingiverse

This is a simplified Vectrex Stick Retainer - the part that goes between the box and metal casing and holds the shaft in place. My Vectrex stick had a lot of play in the z axis, so wanted a part with a deeper well which would hold the ball in place tighter. The original part also has tabs that click into the metal case but I felt these were redundant and made the part harder to both design and print, It is held in place firmly enough with the four screws. Ive provided the original FreeCAD file if you need to change the depth of the well to suit your own stick.
