How do you make a computer joystick?

If you are trying to make a computer joystick, the way you would do it would depend on the type of signals you are trying to produce. If you want a simple digital joystick, you would use switches for each main position, and a pivot and arms to reach the switches. If you want an analog joystick, you would need to create a yoke to turn 2 sets of potentiometers (basically volume controls). A modern digital joystick might use the potentiometers and an A/D converter. Then you would have to have switches for the fire/control buttons. Then you would need the correct cables and wiring. If you create for USB, you'd need extra circuitry to make it USB compliant (and that is beyond the scope of this answer).
