      @UDb23 Sorry to revive this old thread, but is there a possibility you could share the stl files? for v2? I am currently making a spinner and I think the knob is exactly what I am looking for!

        @UDb23 Do you have a link where I can order the bearing?
        Did I understand correctly?
        You stuck black paper on the bottom?
        Without cutouts?

        Edit:
        I found, sorry (KFL08 8mm)

            @treki I cut out the cardboard to have more or less the same shape of the round moving bottom part of the bearing.

              @UDb23 Sorry, my english is terrible. I not understand exactly....
              (I cut out the cardboard to have more or less the same shape of the round moving bottom part of the bearing.)
              Do you have a photo?
              I order:

              https://de.aliexpress.com/item/33036805774.html
              and I use a cheap optical mouse from pearl.ch
              Is this ok?

                @treki Cardboard should be applied like this (red area)

                If the knob and bar you bought are fitting the bearing they look good to go.

                  No lamella needed? The optical mouse understood this like a black table?
                  Cool ^^

                    @treki Yes. Just make sure cardboard is not too thick; should be able to rotate freely.

                        It seems that needs a specific arcade1up controller; without it won't work.

                                Guy over on AtariAge did 2 sets of these already and is working on a 3rd set now. I bought one of each run and they work great. :)

                                            These are for the (external) button.
                                            At Arkanoid, this releases the ball.
