Thanks guys. I chose those colors because they match the 360 color scheme for their buttons. You know, A is grn, X is blue, etc. I swapped the plungers and rims from colored and clear KNs. I’ll be selling that stick soon.
I’m a pretty simple dude, I don’t like a lot of flash on my stick. I ripped off the artwork and sanded down the metal on my SE stick to make it shiny, this should tide me over until I get a TE. It’s awesomely cold to the touch, as well.
Yeah, there’s a lot that goes into a dual wireless mod. Wires from the sixaxis go to the common ground mod which meet up with the wires from the 360 pad which go to the dsub25 connector. Continuing along, the wires there go to each of the buttons and joystick harness. Of course there’s still other wires there. The main usb cord goes to the imp board. From there, the ps3 and xbox usb wires go to their respected boards, plus power goes to the lithium ion charger on the other side. The battery is hooked up to the charger and the wires from the battery go to two power switch chips that then go to the battery spots on the controllers.
I hope I did a good job because without those black sheaths there would be a wire mess everywhere. Plus having those usb cords and power cord helped out too.
I just visited that blogspot. The sticks there are crazy nice. Yours is also one of the best looking there. Does this guy sell internationally? Just asking, I’m not personally interested.
Haven’t asked Jason personally, but the line ‘Please contact me for international postage cost.’ on one of his entries suggests that he ships internationally.
I wonder if shipping to the US is as cost prohibitive as getting stuff shipped from the US?
I’m not into the whole anime girls, unless they are real girls dressing up like anime but this girl in the pic has won my heart. Who and where is she from?
kte03, I think shipping prices are high everywhere in Australia D:
For us, big shipping is a reality. That’s why I went custom instead of a TE.
B-boy Tekken, cheers.
Didn’t even realise the art was anime! Haha. Jason lists the stick as a “Three Kingdoms-Xiao Qiao” stick… I’m not familiar with the art myself, it’s done by ‘Artgerm’, who I think you can find on deviantart.
Heres a Dhalsim stick I just finished building. It was inspired after playing against a really talented Sim player and losing miserably. I never realised how good he really can be.
All Sanwa parts which I had left over from my other builds. The case is very slim and with regards to the finish I went for a metalic brown (mauve tint) with ghost effect skulls to emphasise Dhalsim’s characteristics. The skulls cant be seen unless the light is hitting it. Otherwise it just looks brown. The wide metalic red stripes were quite obviously taken from his face and wrapped around the case and into the art work.
NOTE: I will be building more customs BUT not just yet. I will notify everyone who has enquired and give them priority. Just drop me a message through my website and I will be sure to put you down for one.
