sort of looks like a lemon juicer where your palm would go...
I don't really get that part but the rest seems pretty cool.

Ha, the engraved lines look kind like the geoglyph designs in Nazca, which is a very cool nod in that direction. And the lemon juicer part, that Craig mentioned? Hmm... I guess it's to make this a signature stick, right? One, which will use an optical palm reader to recognize the biomedical identity of the player, so only he/she can use it. Q Branch would be bloody proud.

cool exercise, not my cup of tea but showing quite some CNC skills! Far from aesthetics , wouldn't the X shape with the screws embossed sockets scratch the surface you'd put it on?

The sheer work is impressive, resembling more of an art piece than a game controller. But this may be a problem with any potential gamer market you are perhaps looking at directing this item towards.

Does the stick have function as well as form?

There is certainly a gap in the market left behind by B15SDM arcade sticks. Maybe this could be your target market?

I'd be impressed if it was like your tinfoil penis shaped controller, unfortunately we got this fucked up weirdo bullshit controller.

could make you 1 off them if you like where would you like the buttons

I'm not fucking with you, please make a penis shaped controller out of aluminium. You might just break the entire forum.

Honestly I'd just make an aluminium old style or bean style controller, they'd actually sell big time.

This^

Why not just do that and upscale it just a tad to fit in a full size joystick and buttons. Seems like a no brainier that they would sell.

Or just something like this in Aluminum. Simple yet effective.
