Arcade stick dimensions

Hey, i’m new to forums and fighting games in general but I have been looking at making a custom arcade stick. My only real problem at the moment though is that i’m not sure what dimensions I should use for the case as well as the size of the holes for the buttons and joystick. If anyone has the dimensions for a madcatz TE on hand or some suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

That’s the basics. PCB stuff may be a little out of date, but slagcoin is the best reference for the mechanics of the stick out there.

Thanks a bunch, Ill take a look. :slight_smile:

I’m just finishing my second custom built stick case and it’s 38cm (15") long, 23cm (9") wide and 5cm (2") tall. The first stick was 38cm long, 28cm wide and 7cm tall and it was horrible! I really like the current stick, it’s really comfortable.

I know last post was 2 years ago, but, 7cm is too tall? Should I reduce it to 5cm?
Going for 38x20x7 (cm).

Making hitbox.
