Thanks guys, I can quite easily send it to the US using standard postal service but I know from previous experience the customer will 99% of the time end up getting a customs charge at their end.
Thats why I send the sticks internationally using FedEx as 99% of the time they dont bother with the customs charge.
There is another way of looking at it…just pretend its £135 free shipping…lol.
To be honest it does hurt me quite alot to hear when people decide not to purchase a stick because of the shipping rates. I have really tried my best to make my sticks alot more affordable for people who cant quite stretch to the full amount for a complete stick. I just cant see myself bending back any further anymore.
I’m interested in this since the total price is worth it for what’s avaliable. I was just curious as to what exactly the second revision would have in color configurations or body modifications. Also would there be a way to attach a Neutrik port on one of the 24 mm holes since I would want to modify the stick to be compatible with older generation systems, but from research, the only RJ45 ports avaliable require screws to attach to the body of the case, a no no in my instance.
This first series was just to see how well they do. If they sell well I will be doing more series like this but with a totally unique design and again limit it to 5x 6 & 8 button cases.
The holes on the sides are 24mm and im not sure if you can see it clearly enough but I have mounted a neutrik NAUSB jack on the back in the middle to show you how it looks mounted. It will need to be mounted internally and it will drop right in. You will need to secure it in with a simple technique which I will send along with the case. The hole will not support a neutrik RJ45 jack BUT I think if you removed the “push tab” on the jack it will fit. This was it fits the same way as the Neutrik NAUSB jack.
Great Deal Sam! Just to let you guys know (in case you didn’t know already), B15’s sticks are solid! The quality of his paint and his clear coats are incredible. Pictures really don’t do it justice. They actually look and feel better in person! B15 is up there with the big wigs in the world of stick building. I own one of his sticks so I’m speaking about it first hand. Incredible stuff, really! I’m sure Sam can send everyone an email with the template for the top and bottom art so people can replace the art if they want to.
Thanks for the “big-up” Lefty. Incase anyone is wondering the button/stick layout is the exact same as the madcatz TE stick BUT the overall dimension of the plexi is 325mm x 200mm for the top which is the only difference.
If any one buys a blank case I will be sure to include a file of the template for your records so you can switch the artwork.
I can’t help but I have the opening theme song of the Six Million Dollar Man in my head, while hearing the voice,
"we have technology, we can make it better."
Overall I’ve been looking at your previous work and the paint job you incorporated is beautiful.
I like how the sides of the Bewlix is rounded off on controller. A nice redux on the design.
Good shit B15SDM.
Heres some inside shots I forgot to upload. I have shown it without anything inside and how much space is left after dropping ina cthulu and 360 pcb. Theres still plenty of room left for leds etc.
Just crunched the numbers. It works out pretty close to the same as my VAS-HG I had commissioned, give or take. I’d say it’s worth it. Now to see if I can smuggle one in the budget without the misses killing me…
