vaderag Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 What is the name of those bolts that you use to attach your joystick etc to MDF? They kinda screw in so that you can then bolt into them... Looking to buy a few in bulk so that i can use them for attaching my CP etc, but can't work out what to search for!! Also, if anyone can tell me the best size for CP use that would be great! Cheers

Metalzoic Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Ultimarc sells them in their Joystick section. Maybe it says.
Agrajag Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 The size of the threaded hole needs to match the bolts that will fit through the joystick mounting plate, and the depth of the insert depends on the thickness of your panel. There are lots to choose from on Amazon. HyperSpin behaving oddly?

vaderag Posted July 7, 2016 Author Posted July 7, 2016 In case anyone cares, i bought these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0193Y9Y3M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 After checking Ultimarc (where i'm buying my sticks etc from) they mention it's 5mm, so figure these should do the job...
Metalzoic Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Why not just get them with your Ultimarc arder then? Was there a huge difference in price or something?
