Interchangeable Arcade Joystick 45 Degree Rotation Mount

My latest project is a joystick mount that allows a 4-way joystick to rotate 45 degrees for Q*Bert and Congo-Bongo, and rotate back for Pac Man or Ms. Pac Man. It latches into each position so it won't move on you during play. It's also great for swapping out joysticks of different types. Swap out the 4-way for a Tron stick for a few games of Tron (with my spinner - ) or Discs of Tron (with my Push-Pull Spinner - ). Just print another Joystick mount for each stick.
The original mounting plate is designed for Suzo/Happ style joysticks. There are also plates for Sanwa Japanese style joysticks, and a spacer for Suzo STC 500 joysticks.
This mounts directly to a 1/2" thick control panel, or can be recessed 1/2" from the surface of thicker panels. You can also use washers to space it properly for thinner control panels. It needs a 5" round hole cut through the panel. 4 screws hold it in place.
Due to health issues, I'm unable to work. All donations are greatly appreciated and really help out a lot. Thank you.
Print the plate with 1.6mm walls, minimum 0.6mm top and bottom, and 20% infill.
Print the mount with 1.2mm walls, 1mm top and bottom, and 15-20% infill.
