WTB: Gauntlet Joystick Rebuild Kit

[Guest]

Hi,
Title says it all...do they exist? I am specifically looking for the
white conicle shaped piece that slides over the joy handle and the
spring goes into. I have 4 sloppy original Gauntlet Atari joysticks
that need that piece since it is worn badly. If there are no kits
available, I have been toying with the idea of having them made. Any
interest?

Would that be the only part in the kit?

Either way, I'd be interested in replacing any parts in my Atari System
1 joystick.

Darren,
Im not sure...Every one of them that I have had, that was the only worn
part. Are there other parts that wear too? What other parts were you
in need of?

I'd a take a few of the plungers (that's what they are called) if the
price was right. Maybe 25 - 50.

Stephen,
I was hoping you would chime in and say you had them NOS....
I'll keep you in mind.

LOL. I do have 5 or 6 NOS ones left but they are for my personal use.

If someone is looking to reproduce the "plunger" part, borrowing a NOS
one may be the key to creating it. I also toyed with the idea of
reproducing these a while ago, but when I took apart 1 of my joysticks
and showed the plunger to a Mechanical Engineer friend of mine he said
that it was too worn to make a good copy of it. Anyway, just throwing
that out there....
