Well, I can't stand DIY and my woodwork skills leave a lot to be desired but, rather proud.

With much thanks to this website for help along the way.

Well, last year's sidewinder hacked star wars yoke and the recently completed ipac2 control panel with trigger, dial, trackball and the usual stick and buttons.

Plexi glassed top, artwork alas just paper printer print out. Not too bothered about cosmetics that much. Few images around the sides of my fav arcade machines back in the day and my long since demolished arcade from my youth.

Currently plugs into a PC USB but next stop a raspberry pi.. will doubles build a cabfor it  next year

Steering wheel is not a build of course.

The best doctor in all of Maine, and Korea. If I had to to under the knife, it'd be Hawkeye... Even his sutures are one of a kind.
