Is There Any Reason Why This Isn't A Good Idea? (D-Pad Mod)

So I finally lost the satellite that came with the shit stick, and the metal without anything kinda hurts after a while.

So I modded a bead to fit onto the metal stick:

Yes, I know. Very hardcore modding. And say hello to my Pomeranian :) He's hiding behind the GP2X.

So it is very comfortable and responsive, but before I continue to use it I would like to know if there is any reason not to. The bead adds a couple of mm to the stick's height. I just don't want this thing to break, since I still use it a lot.

And any suggestions for making the bead stick to the stick better? It's not "loose," doesn't spin in place, but it does pull off a little easy.

Thanks guys.
 
Glue the thing on with some hard wax from a candle, drop it in hot, stick the bead on, wait for the wax to cool, play away! This technique works for my own custom GP2X knob mod, the pimp knob .. which I had made for me out of jewellers silver .. :)
