Universal Joystick Mounting Plate Kickstarter

Not sure if it's been mentioned here, but I know a fair number of you like modding sticks.

Before you get too excited... The plate they are making is kinda large (for the happs bolt config), but the $2000 stretch goal is for a "small" plate for japanese panels/cabs and eliminates the happ option, but still allows for JLF, LS-32, LS-56, etc. PRETTY COOL.

Hopefully in the next 10 days they can meet that stretch goal.

The problem with this is that different joysticks require different mounting depths to give the ball/bat-top the correct height above the control panel. For example, let's say we used that universal plate to mount a JLF at the correct height. Then if we just unbolted the JLF from the plate and put an LS-32 on it, it would be at the wrong height.
