I found that industrial strength Velcro works best for putting the sticks on a platform. Once on they don't come off easily, but to get them off easily just slide a butter knife between the Velcro and lift.

Awesome, Plippy! I've order the sticks from a shop in Japan but I want to get started building the mount.
It's nothing fancy. I have an old office chair like this: http://www.urbanremainschicago.com/i...px?itemID=2731 and I'm going to bolt to the underside of the seat cushion a cut to shape acrylic sheet like this: http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/var...ant%5Fid=86205 So there'll be plastic between your legs for the stick and a platform protruding along the left for the throttle. thanks for the help. |

Would you say the suction cups are completely ineffective? I'm not much of a gorilla but I'm assuming any guests will be holding on with a death grip.
I wish there were effective Quarter Turn fasteners you could replace the suction cups with but I can't find any. I think industrial velcro is the way to go as Steiner said. That stuff's strong, especially over 7 square inches. |

I ended up going the velcro route onto some sort of synthetic cutting board (the wife loves this) and it works pretty well. I just did 2 strips of velcro across the bottom and top. Since I didn't put it over the slightly raised corner pads, there's a little bit of wobble, but I think that a couple of rubber bumpers placed under the corners will take care of this. Works pretty well, and I can flip it over to chop up some veggies if so inclined.
