Teeterboard joystick input device using the Scratchboard

The pictures tell 99% of the story

http://picasaweb.google.com/kdmoyers/ScratchTeeterboard

yes, thats a Craftsman universal socket.  The 3/4 inch threaded rod on top is ground down to fit in the female end.

yes, the bottom plate is too thin.  And slide-pots would have worked better.

The kids are LOVING this one, but version 2 will be much better.

Questions welcome.

Way cool! you could also use flex sensors. More expensive, but less mechanics, I imagine.
