It’s a fight stick that you use to make music…

Think about the mad combos you could pull off… I know it’s all aesthetics, but it’s still cool be sure to check out the second video, it is essential (hint: Mega Man)

YES!

Here’s my finished Parasoul stick! Signed by the wonderful Erin Fitzgerald.

If you wanna be nice, please consider voting for it in this contest. If I win, I can buy more parts to make more sticks. :D http://woobox.com/6bb2jz/vote/for/378490

Just some rough fightstick Designs I put together in honor of my first fightstick modding. Which one should I use?

My (J’s) fight stick!

QanBa base, new balltop, shaft and Sanwa buttons, custom artwork. Modded to add pinball buttons on the sides. Great for shmups on Xbox Live Arcade, pinball and fighting on PS3 and fighting and indie games on PC :)

PhreakMods’ The Link (quick release joystick shaft) came in today!

Backpack+ kickstarter pack included: phreakmods backpack, the Link, hex key, Link decal, etched black cover cap (which sadly doesn’t fit the Hori RAP-V3SA joystick hole), etched clear dust-washer and stretch-goal Link stub-piece on phreakmods lanyard.

Installation was real simple and only required a flathead screwdriver and the hex key that was included. 

Messed around a little in the lab with the Link and didn’t run into any problems. Feels just like the original JLF shaft and doesn’t feel like it would detach unless you try to do so deliberately.

Homemade Skullgirls arcade stick I have been working on/fixing since last month. Some of the drawings were re-made by myself taking some old concepts from Skullgirls, some are almost traced/changed and others were just colored, but everything was redrawn by me. Also it glows, yeah!

Very Cool!

I figure I have a tumblr, I might as well use it.

This project was completed for Zee in Florida. It’s a Tek Case from Art’s Hobbies using a Hitbox layout. PCB is a Paewang and a Toodles-brand SOCD Cleaner. The red switch is to switch 4P and Select/Back to make “blinking” easier.

I can’t even begin to describe the personal demons I had to conquer when working on this stick. I’m already a pretty ridiculous perfectionist, and I ended up completely scrapping the wiring four times because I’d mess one thing up and get pissed and just start ripping wires up.

I really found out that, despite looking like Big Boss, I can be quite the diva when it comes to stick modding. Sometimes I’d get so frustrated and overwhelmed that I’d refuse to work on it for a month at a time. The client would email me and I’d begrudgingly go back to work. It took my (then, now ex-) girlfriend to refuse to see me to finally finish. And finish, I did. I still think it looks like crap, though.
