electrical tape to secure pcb.... too ghetto

 

I think there's a growth on that stick. How does it feel? (Inside joke: D'Angelo reference)

 

Hey K, not a bad mod. If you want to do something really cool, bog that VMU hole up with some Plastibond, sand it off, drill a new hole for the Guide button, mount the PCB a bit more permanently (I agree, it is a bit ghetto /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif ), paint it and stick some kick arse artwork on it.

Then you'll have a stick to be proud of! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thumbs_up.gif

 

thanks for the advice dreamcazman, this is my first mod!

i actually honestly dont know how to put artwork on, or the correct process and which kind of paints to use.

also, any suggestion as to how i can mount the pcb better?

much appreciated man /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

There is a hole right there for the old DC pbc to be screwed in. I use that hole, a small screw and some sort of soft spacer in between in order to secure the pbc without breaking it.

very good job man for your first mod! was it hard to solder the xbox pbc? I tried doing it once but I fucked it up unfortunately...

 

nah im really cool with the soldering, ive had a lot of expereince with it.

just not case modding /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif


hey, could you show me a picture of how u secured ur pcb? im still not exactly sure how to do it?

thanks man

 

ok, check the gallery, I put some awful quality pictures up!

 

Nice mod. How does it play with those Sanwa stock parts compared to a VSHG for example? Got a couple of Agetec sticks still lying around somewhere. I might consider modding them too.

 

SEGA also provides the best stick!!!
I never forget how good DC stick is and so as VSHG~

 

all the blue buttons are sanwa, exact same as vshg.
the stick is sanwa JLF, exact same as vshg.

the green button and the start button were on the original agetec, so i call them "stock" buttons /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif


obviously the agetec does not have the same dimensions or weight as a VSHG or an HRAP, but the controls are the same
