Duce Lewis Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 After struggling with my MS Sidewinder Joystick, I've finally found a solution I have my JS set on a glass top end table next to my desk Sidewinder FFB is strong and it tended to slide around a bit Finally made a trip to our local hardware store looking for some rubber material Ended up in the Flooring Dept and found a soft spongy doormat It's about 1/2" in. thick and is quite soft and tacky I knew I was on the right track when I had trouble sliding it off the rack Placed it on the table then the JS ...presto instant suction cup I even tried to reposition the mat a little and it wouldn't budge, JS hasn't moved either So if you're having trouble with a slippery JS, the solution may be as close as your front door HTH, Quote
Duce Lewis Posted October 7, 2009 Author Posted October 7, 2009 Yeah, I'd thought about using some sort of tape But the end table is glass inlayed on finished wood I may want to use it for it's intended purpose someday so I opted for the mat It's acually an indoor mat for in front of the stove or something Probably so spongy because it's anti-fatigue Whatever works!
