Made 2 matching sticks for my Atomiswave setup.
All buttons and sticks are Sanwa made parts.

Just the right size and weight for me.

Much better than those Dreamcast sticks I was going to convert.

Not bad at all man. Looks great for homebrew. I've seen alot of "custom" work thats turned out "crustom" imo.

Nice parts and construction, but I would go for larger base for my palms to rest on.

sticks look great, what do you make to the sanwa controls?

i've only ever really used neo sticks, i have just modded some DC sticks with sanwa gear but not wired up yet to try out!

Was that a pre-assembled box that you used to make that? The case does look nice but just too crowed.

I'm not so keen on the MAS one I have, there fine on my MVS but a little loose with the AES....

Pimpin!! What kind of plastic box did you use to make that with? Some Palm space would be a good idea with either a bigger box or a smaller coin/select and start button so the main buttons could be moved up for the space. Some people play differently with sticks. I rest my palms but my friend just hovers his hand while playing and then taps the buttons from there.

Those were the biggest boxes I could get that look right for the job. I suppose I could look somewhere else for project boxes but the prices get rediculas.

I feel quite comfortable using them to be honest, then again these will be sold with my AW shortly :crying:

Good work, those sticks look great. Even if they're small they look nice and neat, I'm a fan.

Congrats.

Where did you get the buttons, the stick, and the cable parts, especially the one that is next to the box itself?

Good work by the way, they're called custom for a reason, you can allways change things.
