      @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.

                                        @calom You don't need to connect it to zero delay pcb; you use the usb connection of the mouse itself (different usb port on your Pi)
