In case you haven't stopped by Byrdo's site lately, he's making some nice looking arcade sticks these days...

Byrdo is a great stick maker and artist.

If only I possessed those carpentry skills.

That looks great.
Something looks a little off to me, but it still looks really good.
Seems unearthly small too, like you would need more depth than that to mount those controls. I know Japanese parts fit shallower depths, but dang.

Router bits and a good router table (much easier to move the wood than move the router) are your friend.

I agree with morti a router table is DEFINATLY the easiest way to make those moldings.
Really nice work on that website.
Cheers

Been watching Byrdo's stuff for a long time.  Nice clean work and sleek designs.
