Zal's budget stick bonanza! UPDATE 11/11 CLOSED TILL CURRENT ORDERS ARE COMPLETE

alright i’m gonna build four or five cases tomorrow

i have 3 official orders thus far, if you want one of the other two cases PM by tomorrow so that i can drill it to you prefered button pattern

Thank you all for the interest, hopefully i can steal some of x aracde’s customer’s, cause their sticks fucking suck and cost way more

^ post some pics of the completed new design! i will probably order an xb360 stick once i see what the box looks like

a completed 360 stick will run me like $70ish right?

Can you do a Tekken 5 Case

as in a teken layout?

I have this I bought…I want like a Case like Tekken 5 one

ok well i don’t have a design that will mount that stick, but talk to me next week, i think i’ll be able to order the mounting plates for those jap sticks and design a box accordingly

what stick is that just for reference? if its a hori i can probably build you a box this week,

also are those buttons screw in or snap in?

the stick is a hori tekken 5 stick. bottom part of the box is the same as hrap series, only the top faceplate is different

the buttons are snap in

Zal, sorry to add another one on top of the questions I already asked, but are you using the Chinese Happ Competitions or the iL manufactured Competitions?

I wouldn’t even consider using the happ comp, i’ve heard too many bad things about it, and the only part of the stick i want to be budget is the materials of the case it self, thats to say that i will be using the finest quality arcade parts available. so sorry i should’ve clarified earlier, but yes i do use the iL comp

when it comes time for jap sticks i’ll probably use the JLW as its less expensive and not too terribly different from the JLF

How much would shipping to california cost for an empty case? Also, since the box is screwed together, do you think you would be able to ship it not assembled as to save on shipping costs. Thanks in advance!

pm sent.

this is a good idea I’ll decide if I buy one or not after seeing some more pics :tup:

Bump for update, final design ready, I have the first two boxes ready (rugedman and EtotheNG) and there are three more awaiting assembly in santa fe. (LBC, fuzzy snugs, and domino logic.)

is there anyone i’m missing? sorry if i forgot about you, i just did not expect this many orders so soon.

i’ll be building more boxes this week and hacking pads on thursday. once the pads are hacked, i’ll be ordering buttons and taking payments.

thank you all for your support thus far, i have a feeling this is going to be a magic carpet ride ha ha!:wgrin::wgrin::wgrin::wgrin::wgrin:

Good to see someone offering great prices on some good looking boxes. Good luck with your sales and I might have to pick up one when I get some money.

Those look really good, will you be shipping to Canada when you begin selling these, and do you have an estimate of cost + shipping?

Hey this looks really promising.

I like the height and angle of the example box-- I’m wondering if you’d be willing to do one that’s got an extra 3-4 inches of face area added to either side. Basically same placement, but on a wider top panel.

If so, I’m definitely down for one. Lemme know and then we can talk price. Thanks a lot!

thanks for your kind words zombie!

Snatcher: i’m currently taking orders, i’ve never shipped international but there’s no reason i can’t start now PM and we can get the ball rolling

Ec gief, it’ll take a slight re design but it wouldn’t be much of a challenge, PM me and we can work out the details, would $25 be ok for the box as it would be a one off?

kewl design :tup:

lemme know when youre doing mine, got a few Q’s

i’ll be making yours thursday

bump for price table update

i’m going to ship your box right now ETOTHENG! i’ll get you a tracking number shortly
