Joystick Update

2002-09-17 by grantrichter2001

Hello All,

We got the Joysticks built this weekend. Just waiting for the 
power connectors and we will be shipping your orders shortly.

For fun, I shot video of ever step of the whole process of making 
a Joystick module. I want to edit it to a quick 60 second flick. This 
will show all of the many steps involved with making even a 
simple module. So you can see you get your moneys worth. Also 
a good exposition of Nick's work T shirt collection...

God Bless DV cameras and iMovie. They make film making fun 
again.

Thanks to all for your extraordinary patience. The Joysticks are 
much better looking than the original batch of 10. They also have 
some structural improvements. The new ones are labled Model 
GR-1209B to distinguish them from the old ones.

We have 25 additional available in case you missed out on the 
original order or want another. We can ship from stock after next 
weekend.

Thanks to Nick Liebrecht for being such a great guy and a very 
hard worker. If he hadn't volunteered to assemble them, I could 
not have done it by myself. The Joystick and trigger button combo 
is a sweet little controller too.

Best Regards,

Grant Richter
