I had always loved the bat handles on the old Williams Pitch & Bat games. At the same time I have always liked (but not loved) the giant BAT button on my slugfest. Problem solved!!

Zippy short joystick with a custom 3D printed "baseball bat" knob and voila. Working on a 3D printed 1-way restrictor plate for the joystick base to simplify the action. (Currently rigged the 4-way restrictor to only allow one-way movement)

Also, planning on a better dust washer. The hole in the CPO for slugfest is large (1.5") so the dust washer has to be equally as large to cover the space, otherwise you would see metal from the CP below. Any ideas?

I like it! Maybe paint the washer to look like a baseball, or just paint it blue to match the decal.
