Homemade Stick + homemade Steam Machine = perfect setup 💜

If you're looking for a nice Christmas gift, I have just the thing for you: Homemade Arcade sticks from France. I've made a small batch discounted for early adopters ! Also you can buy my original catstick ! y-lab-arcade-controllers.sumupstore.com

Hey new people, glad you love this little guy ! You can find it here : y-lab-arcade-controllers.sumupstore.com/product/kitt...

It's still looking for a new home ! y-lab-arcade-controllers.sumupstore.com/product/doub...

Finished my TV rig made from an ASRock BC250 card and a 3d printed custom cooling funnel. A (small) full gaming PC for around 250€ that can even play modern AAAs, and still be whisper quiet. So proud of how it turned out.

It's alive !

makerworld.com/en/@Ylab I'll be uploading my various printable models here. All free, I make them according to my needs so expect a bit of randomness.

Tried installing a led strip into my stick. The lighting is WAY stronger than I thought it would be 😁

Finished my DIY headphones. Elphinear drivers, 3d printed cups, and reclaimed headband. Love them already.

3d printed a prototype wrap-around air duct so I don't need to destroy the existing cooler. Seems to be working alright, now to test it with the BC 250 powered on !

Yeeeees, let's make this into the ultimate steam/emulation box ✨

Not gonna lie that finishing blow felt great. Played on my own DoubleSalt of course.

From zip-ties proof of concept to 3d printed supports

I deshrouded my 3080 to replace the thermal pads/paste and put some Noctuas instead of the stocks fans, the results are crazy, I'm getting 27° under load. Not an easy task but extremely worth it.

This is a tracheotomy kind of morning.

One done, five to go.

Ok I caved in, I've bought a usedcryptobro card that can be turned into a full gaming pc. It will be perfect for when I start to build myself an arcade cab.

Still have no idea how I won that.

Yay !

Plat 1 eludes me still, but one day I'll reach it. I'd love to get it before the 2.0 launch

Not really pretty yet, but those 3d printed headphones already blow my expectations. Let's design a headband next.

Ik i mentioned this before but now that Grok creates blatant CP, i am really surprised that more people from the FGC STILL haven’t fully switched over to Bluesky or even stop using Twitter completely. Even in terms of my local FGC, i would really love to see some of my IRL oomfs more active here :/

I had some leftover rainbow filament left, so here's my daughter's build.

Too late for Christmas but you can still order some sticks as a treat for the new year !

So you’re a newcomer to the genre and not a fan of fighting games❓ Still, give Street Fighter 6 and Guilty Gear Strive a shot❗️Both are 50% off and EXTREMELY accessible to newcomers.

Just look at the gifts I got yesterday !

The inspiration/ the result

Making more cats sticks !

buttons galore

Also, frosted yellow panels, yay or nay ? Maybe with a white frame ?

Which color should I make a fightstick frame with next 🤔 ? I wanna try to print leopard spots or tiger stripes but I need to figure out a way of not wasting a whole spool in color change poops... Maybe magnetic side panels printed flat ?

Still my favorite fighting game ever

This one is for sale ( his little brother will be even cooler) !

It's the small things, but those mounting brackets I've printed are way more convenient than bolts.

Morning.

I mean...

The urge to keep it for me rather than selling it is strong...

Making a small batch of sticks for those who want to treat themselves for x-mas...

Back in black

Translucency time 🎇

I've got a bunch of smoked black panels done for my sticks, look how nice they look !

New frame revision incoming ! It will be quite cheaper too.

Made a custom stand ! Btw I know my colour scheme is all over the place, my own stick is the one I experiment on like a mad scientist.

I had some leftover rainbow filament left, so here's my daughter's build.

Now with buckles for strap or trinkets ✨

Look at this gacha I just bought !

If you're into challenging platformers I HUGELY advise you to buy RUN, especially at this price. And you can cool off with Broken Lens afterward.

Look at my father's day gift ✨

Finally I can try Absolum from @dotemu.bsky.social / @supamonksstudio.bsky.social / Guard Crush, absolutely gorgeous game !
