Hi, I used to post a bit when I was planing on making a MAME cabinet, but put all the money in a DIY projection setup, and now I need some real arcade controls, and want to know where you guys get your stuff from?

I'm going to use a hacked PlayStation controller (Easy no solder A-Series hack thanks to SpiffyShoes) to make an arcade stick for fighters (I've been using a horrible old namco PS1 stock arcade stick, good for moding, but not to great by itself).

I'm looking at just buying a Comp stick and comp buttons right now, might go sanwa later, but for now, the comp should be fine.

Where should I get sticks/buttons from? Bob Roberts lives in the same state as me, (I live in Shreveport) and his prices are cheap, Happ has a bigger company, and I heard horrible things about WICO's customer service.

Which company should I go for, and who do you use?

Check the Buy/ Sell/ Trade section and look up ponyboy.

Likely your best price.

will the Ultimarc J-Stick (bat top) fit easy on a wood CP? I've never used these sticks, but I have used Sanwas and comps, supers, and ultimates, and ultimates diagonals I didn't like, and people who play fighters swear by the comp stick, as far as a US stick goes. Anyone tell me how those J-Sticks feel?
Goz:
The J-Sticks are Sanwas.
