Create Your Own Arcade Stick From IKEA Parts
Arcade joysticks are the best way to play different games, and making your own is much easier than you think. The problem in general is to make a good case for buttons and knobs. Craftsman Fredrik Setterberg made it out of some IKEA details.
For the box, you will need an IKEA box with a handle , a cutting board , a floor stick, and a stain. As far as the arcade parts go, it’s a kit like this that includes a USB interface, buttons, switches, and a few wires. The total cost is around $ 50- $ 70, not counting the tools you need. The project is insanely well documented, with photos, a PDF manual , button hole guides, and more. Check out Setterberg’s website to find everything you need.
