Love that this thread popped up again. I currently have:

2 Qanba Q1s fully sanwa'd
2 Injustice sticks with mirrored plexi, and installed sanwa switches and spring.
Hori XB360 VX
2 MK Klassic sticks
2 generic PS2/Xbox/GameCube sticks that are getting modded soon.

I'd love to consolidate to just two sticks that handle everything, but I don't have the technical knowledge to pull that off.

Finished up my two PS3 sticks. They came out great.

Used Injustice fight stick bases, added in 2lb springs to the joysticks, added in clear Korean buttons with sanwa micro switches, clear ball tops and mirrored plexi from tek innovations.

Loving them.

@Tardis - did you do a thread on the build of those sticks? Would like to see it.

I have a couple of those sticks buy they are so flimsy (light) feeling - were you able to make it sturdier / solid?

Qanba Q3's:

All wood case, piano black finish. I have 2 fighter sticks, and 1 shmup/neo-geo style layout. The fighters naturally have sanwa parts in 'em (JLF etc.), while the shmup stick is rocking seimitsu stuff (LS-58-01).
All 3 have PS360+'s unfortunately (I say unfortunately because the retro system support on the PS360+'s are currently faulty. Akishop is working on fixes for their next firmware release, but it has taken them a long time to realize they should have fixed 'em a while ago).

I still need to print the art for the shump stick...

I presently own a HRAP3, a Hori Tekken 6 wireless stick (360) and I have a old Hori Tekken 5 stick from the collection there was some years ago.

I didn't do a step by step build. If you need I can do a little write up. It's still not the heaviest stick in the world , but I really like that. What felt cheap to me was the qanba knock off buttons and the wonky spring.

The art on that Blanka stick is really awesome.

I'd read this. I have several PS3/360/DC sticks already but would like to build a couple in preparation for impending CMVS/Supergun love from JNX.

Thanks! I threw it together quickly and it turned out better than I figured it would. I would like to clean the image up a bit more, but I haven't had the time. Perhaps later.

Ive had many sticks over the years. But my favorite is the Hori t5 stick. I like the button layout and size/weight of the stick. Customized this with a LS40, GNC buttons and plexi. Need to throw and multi console pcb in there. But for now I just game...

I'm looking to build a stick with a buddy who does wood work (Inspired by the Analogue). I'm debating about the size and button layout. Anyone have precise diagrams/templates (spacing, etc...) that could help us? Also, best US supplier for original parts used in Neo arcade cabs?
