Another Custom Stick.

Thanks for the comments, lads. He did originally want to go with black rings and white buttons until he realised how much more it would cost him.
 
This joystick is really amazing, BE. While I myself do not like using japanese sticks, I can appreciate the level of detail and skill it's taken to make something like this. How durable is the material that you used? Would a Krit toss crack it in any way? Also, do you suspect that the screws on top might become an issue of getting in the way? Mainly the bottom left, and top right ones. Were they really nessasary to be there in the first place? I also like how you drilled a deep hole for the guide button, but why not use an 18mm button for the guide/ps button? Nobody really needs a gigantic guide button.
 
Well, we were gonna originally use smaller buttons for the guide/back/start buttons but the stockist had nothing smaller than Sanwa 30's in white, so the guy decided on using white 30's instead. The material is grooved, slotted together and just shy of 1/2" thick, so is sturdy enough for my daughter to stand on. I've also reinforced it inside.

The screw placement is exactly the same as my on own stick and I've never had problems with them being the way. That said, it may be different of other people depending on how they use/postion it when they're playing. In the future I could either counter-sink or tape down the top plate if people do find that a problem. :)
