Hi Guys,
Finally after many months of planning and designing I have finally finished my custom pair of external LS30 Rotary joysticks. This was a joined project so a very big thank you to my good friend Langersld for helping in the fabrication, the design of the graphics and mdf boxes used in the joysticks. Both of us are building a set of 2 sticks.

The LS30 joysticks are brand new (NOS) which I recently picked up from ebay. What an amazing find. Using Druin's rotary interface, IPAC2 and Sanwa buttons. The Joysticks are connected via a DB25 connector for 2 player action. I decided to do this so that I only have to rely on 1 rotary interface only and required 24 wire connections to the secondary player joystick. Finished using Zinsser B.I.N 123 water based primer sealer and Cabotts Cabotine Water Based Polyurethane finish. The finish is the same as my Vewlix cab.Here are some pics and Youtube video.
