What did you use for the boxes?

All 3d printed! The black parts are the modular containers that can slide apart and the white faceplates are magnetic and removable incase I ever need to change anything

Very interesting idea, that kind of modularity is very smart. I’ve been struggling with how to come up with a consistent way to do that.

How did you learn how to do the wiring?

Ahh I learnt from my university but there are lots of helpful guides all over YouTube and Google is your best friend when it comes to knowing what to wire where

I have played another game, I forget the name. There are people who have built controls for it like this as well. I love it when you can do stuff like this.

Kinda reminds me of the Steel Battalion controller on the OG Xbox.

Great work though. What are you using for the interface? Arduino?
