This is the big version of the joystick my friend and I made on whim, riffing designs back and forth with nothing more than a lil CAD shoulder peeking on discord.
I settled on the use of 18 magnets 6x2mm for a snappier response and click-y sounds. All magnets face the same direction relative to the center. In the attraction configuration, the action is smooth but can be enough to wiggle magnets loose, so use superglue and silicone lube once you have the magnets in and BEFORE you finish assembly.
A little bit can go a long way but I put about 3 peas worth of grease in (that is a lot) and it is a smooth operator.
