"Check out my new arcade stick!" Thread (Do not quote images)

[bonebreak2000]

Looks great Ruged. I love seeing cases we made fully built. I like what you did with it.
Now that you have a 360 stick we can play ninja turtles with the arcade sticks! :P

[ecKsniNe]

Thanks. Yeah I think it will look dope when its done.

Oooh very cool. I'm looking at case options for my next CMVS, and I hadn't thought of a wood case like that.

Might have to copy your idea there.

[degauss]

This week I finally finished my arcade stick. This is the first stick I built but with the help of good friends I managed to finish the project without a major desaster.

The final result has all Seimitsu buttons with quick disconnects, a Seimitsu LS-32-01, dual-PCB with a multi-console Chtulhu and a MadCatz 360 retro arcade PCB, an Imp electronic switch to change between the Cthulhu and 360 PCB and the RJ-45 mod. The 2 PCBs are connected with a SUB-D 25 connector. All electronic components can be removed separately without soldering (except fort the Imp which is ‚married’ to the Chtulhu, but they seem really happy this way).

It has a mounting plate that will also fit a Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT. Sanwa buttons with the larger nut will also fit.

The case is made of carbon and glass fibre. The bottom is made of 6mm acrylic with rubber feet. The whole stick weighs 1.7kg or 3.75 pound.















I hope you like it as it has a different form with the lowered handrest. Big thanks to all of shoryuken, without you I would never have built a stick and thanks for looking!

^^ that right there looks amazing!

Where's the work log on that? I wanna see how you made that case.

[Shnergeburgn]

wow, that looks professional

[degauss]

I could make a thread with some sort of blog if that's OK?

[DrumsAreNeat]

I think that would be a swell idea.

[fwirth]

i would say that it is a nice/unique enough stick to get a thread, as long as it has lots of pictures and designing and not just the same pictures you posted here

[Alchemaga]

dude is that made out of fiberglass, if so really great work, FG is really hard and messy to work with and takes alot of patience to make the desired form

[AnimeVortex]

DUDE, that is TOO good!!! Is it REAL Fiberglass?... must have COST A FORTUNE!!! Or maybe you work at a fabrication place... God the Perks!!!

Nice shape too!

Makes me want to post more sticks that we've done... infact I'll dig up a few right now ... They'll Pale in comparison, but hey its all good!

I love the little indent for your wrist on that Fiberglass stick, props man.

["not ivy"licious]

< is fuckin jealous of Rugedman's stick

[ProjektONE]

Very nice stick. Ive worked with Carbon Fiber so I know the trouble you have gone through. What type of weave did you use? Did you vacuum seal it? Im tempted to build something like this.

[lechatmachine]

Great Job for the carbon case !

Here is my World Famous Bang Bro' Namco Arcade Stick for 360.

The Layout looks okay to me... but you're going to get in trouble when placing your stick and buttons down...

It'll end up looking something like this:



What exactly are you trying to make it look like? Do you want to show your support for those companies. Perhaps laying the logos out on the Top or Bottom will make it stand out more?...

Since you have both Capcom and SNK, perhaps an image of SNK vs. Capcom would be more appropriate (or at least include some images of SNK Characters...)

Send me a link to your PSD file, I'll see what I can come up with...

Anyone can help me out with my template it looks pretty boring and my ps skills arent so good, this is what i have so far not keep on the plain background nor the orange/reddish tint of everything either

This Stick was for a really cool guy, I think he's somewhere on this Board but I don't know his Gamer Tag.





Here is another Stick for another REALLY awesome Gamer, who handles Akuma (Gouki) really well!




I'd love some feedback guys!

Finally broke down and made a Japanese stick, not nearly as cool as the real carbon stick.

Seimitsu LS-32-01, and Sanwa OBSNs

Nice and simple.
