: A few weeks back, I posted here wondering how to go about creating custom molds just so I could have those grips in different colors. Among others, Xiaou2 responded that he had tried this and it would be quite expensive to do. But still possible. I think it involves creating silicon molds, pouring in clear resin and mixing in dye...
A while back, I had asked if anyone had tron-style sticks that could send me some detailed pictures that I could take measurements off of.
My intention was to carve/machine a similar handle out of hardwood, that could be fitted over/around a standard HAPP joystick handle.
That was, untill I found someone who had done this hack with HAPP parts. He does not have a webpage for his cabinet yet, but it had interchangable panels in its control panel, allowing for nearly any combination of controls at any time.
These were used as his 'tank' controls.
