Zero to Fightstick Episode 08a: Making & Modding Cables; Sleeving & Wrapping Wires
Channel: Zevaeros
Date: 2020-04-24

Are you interested in building your own arcade controls or fightstick? This series will cover the basics of building / assembling your own by walking you through the processes I used to build my second arcade stick. 


In this episode I'll cover the first part of the creating cables/wires sessions, starting with how to sleeve your cables with PET wrap and heat shrink. This is optional, but I thought it would make things look neat and protect my wires. The wire used was ordered from AllFightSticks.com for the Left Stick, Directional Pad, and Right Stick selection switch that was installed earlier.


NOTE: If you have a smooth straw you can use, the straw method mentioned here goes MUCH faster.
