Really good job! I'm impressed, and I remember how awfully long scanning that piece of art took, looks like it payed off!
What a coincidence I was reading an article about custom sticks and was tempted to make one myself. Looks really good dude.
"And now if/when it breaks, I know how to fix it, unlike stupid Hori sticks that break randomly."
So true, so true.

That's a really great job! I wish I had those kind of skills so I wouldn't be forced to spend $150 on arcade sticks...
Sweet stick. How much total did the stick cost to make?
Shame about the Hori sticks breaking. I have had my two EX2 sticks for about two years and my Real Arcade Pro stick for about nine months and they all work perfectly. Now I fully understand that the EX2 buttons are not the greatest in the world, but in your opinion, is it possible that the reliablity issues have been overblown? Or have you had a stick break yourself?
Just wondering, because the sticks that my friends and I own seem to be doing just fine and I haven't run into any problems with it, even though I consider myself to be a mid to heavy user of the sticks.

@ErbilT
I lost count at how much I spent on it, but I'd say it was probably at least a bit over $150, including all the tools I bought. And my Hori issues are not overblown, for me at least, because I've had two die on me. Both times, I sat down on my carpet with the stick and suddenly the RB is constantly pressed and certain directions on the joystick no longer work. I can only assume that it got a slight static shock from the carpet, which traveled through the metal base and arced onto the board. Could be completely wrong, but both died in the same situation and had the same symptoms.

Aw... Everyone building sticks. Makes me want to make one myself, but really all I want is my own custom artwork.
Nice work, I hope it serves you well on the battle field. :P
