I just want to say that is super slick looking and a million times better than the examples from earlier in the thread. Still though, in the last picture you can see the black inner lip and the light source is being reflected in all kinds of different directions (probably) because the paint went on uneven. To me that’d be unacceptable.
If you are referring to the inner lip above the plexi, that is liquid electrical tape, not wet sanded MDF, it is to provide better protection against having a stick rubbing against it, it dries a hard plastic rubber like texture. Thanks for the compliment and the troll though =)
Short clip i made for some video of the stand.

He requested I put Eye of the Tiger on the video so here it is if you want to watch again but with some music =P
and thanks for checking out my thread.

I see, that’s cool. I didn’t mean to troll, was just pointing out the only flaw I could find. Given that it’s a feature of not scratching up the stick I think I’d let it slide.
Cheers.
i know I was just messing w/ you =) Thanks again for your feedback! The more feedback I get the better i will get…
Congratulations on that piece. It is an impressive piece of work.
:clapdos:
Hmmm… seems to me that you could add a metal panel from Lightning Label Customs to the top of that stand pretty easily. I’m just saying…
haha make it the biggest TE fightstick ever it does look like a TE sorta
We used the TE Stick, Hori VLX, Kraylix, etc for inspiration while coming up with this design. =)
Great job sir! Guess the quote…
“You go and do something like this…and totally redeem yourself!”
I seconded that statement
What if i raised the insert put plexi on top make it flush and drill button/joystick holes hinge on the inside so you could open the top have your Paewang Revolution Multi Console pcbs inside and the usb a/b quick disconnects on the back , could make a 1 or 2 player version. That way you could put your own artwork in it make it your own, without all the hassle of masking off all the designs in tape.
I recognize it but cant remember , I watch so many movies it all just blends together…
now i wont be able to stop thinking about that thanks… hah
Would that look good ?Would I still be able to use it as a Stand for my others Sticks? Looking good :tup: Can’t wait to have it tho
how much would 1 cost like the 1 you made badboy?
The base can be ordered from IKEA for $40 it comes in red black or white,
I can make the top like this
$150 unfinished
$250 primer/sanded to 400 grit paper
$350 for like a 2 color theme and just clear coated or
$500 wet sanded to 2500 grit paper, nufinish, then turtle waxed to a piano finish
this includes the thick plexi piece cut to fit and inserts to fit the TE , Hori VLX, or if you want a custom size insert let me know your sticks dimensions.

example of the TE insert this is going to be painted black wet sanded and red felt on the bottom so it wont scratch the plexi
Also if anyone has a custom build of any sort, they can email me or just PM me on here Ide be happy to try and build it for you. Though I do have a few things i am currently working on so it might take me a little bit…
AAAHH Dumb and Dumber!!! I just remembered =)
The top weighs 32 lbs so if you wanted to try and calculate shipping say 35lbs and the dimensions of the box will probably be something like 27 x 21 x 9
