So if you didn't know I've embarked on a journey to make my own ps3/360 joystick specifically to play SFIV, but hopefully venture into other fighters. I spent 3-4 hours last Sunday with my brother creating this pretty bad ass box. Luckily he had a plethora of tools that made this job relatively easy. Main tools were the table saw and drill!
Here's the first iteration roughly put together:
The acrylic cracked while drilling so gotta make a new one of those, but overall AWESOME! So for finishing I took it all apart and glued it back together as square as possible. I then proceeded to sand the crap out of it, now on about my 4th pass of sanding.
Current iteration:
After all this sanding I decided to take a brake from construction and jump on some soldering. Went to Radioshack and busted $50 bucks on parts and tools =/. Anyways I put together the board for the actual controller.
Parts:
Together:
Here's a short Video of my progress thus far:
