Sanwa's new Arcade Joystick with a detachable shaft, great for travelers!!! 

What's included:

- JLFD Detachable Shaft
- Custom Clear Shaft Cover for JLFD Detachable Shaft
- Dust cover for JLFD lever

What's so special?

Similar to Phreakmods Quick Release shaft (The Link), you will be able to disconnect the detachable shaft by simply rotating the shaft clockwise after you insert the shaft to the base. If you want to release it, simply do it opposite.

Here is Sanwa's tutorial on JLFD-TP-8YT:

*** We recommend you not tighten the balltop to the detachable shaft with a screwdriver. Instead, we recommend you tighten by hand. If you use a screwdriver, the balltop will be very difficult to remove from the shaft.
