    I suggest visiting the tech forum over at www.shoryuken.com ... there are a bunch of stick makers who have dealt with various types of stick styles and I'm sure they can help there.

    Byrdo makes amazing sticks by the way lol.

    Well if you dont check out the tech forums on srk, Use MDF wood, and a piece of cardboard to set up your layout.

    I think he just uses a Rat Shack project box.

    I wish I had the facility to do woodwork. I'd make joysticks, cabinets, it'd be great.
