Finally wrapped up this Symphonic Green build after waiting on a few delayed parts. I'm really happy with how it came together.

Just wanted to share my current collection of custom controllers.
Huge thanks to Bear & Bird Creations for all the help with motherboard services and custom paracords.
Let me know if you'd like a closer look at any of them!

Original Jet Black controller.

Modifications:

- Cleanup

- Blue buttons from Aliexpress

- Left stick alu PS4 from Aliexpress

- Right stick moved from left one

I left Z button original, because chinese wont fit.

Sticks fit without any adjustments.

Finally got this done and working! No damage to the original ASCII controller is required, just replace the keyboard and you're good to go. The thumb cluster needs some rework but otherwise it feels surprisingly good to use

I did this cool guy a couple of years ago. Thanks for lookin'! :D

I’ve been quietly working away on something over the last few months: reproducing GameCube jewels.
The whole thing started with a simple question: “Could I actually remake these?”
Anyone who restores or customises GameCubes will know exactly why I asked. It feels like every donor console I get arrives with a jewel that’s been cleaned with sandpaper, polished with rocks, or attacked with a Brillo pad at some point in its life. I genuinely dread getting the headlight restoration kit out and spending ages trying to bring them back.
So I decided to see if I could make my own.
After a lot of trial and error, measuring, redesigning and tweaking, I’ve ended up with something I’m genuinely proud of. The finished jewel comes in within 0.01mm of an original OEM jewel and the fit is spot on.
The construction is a little different from what people might expect. These aren’t stickers stuck onto plastic blanks. The base is 3D printed in PETG, the top layer is laser-cut acrylic, and the artwork is applied in reverse on the underside before being backed with multiple coats of paint and clear coat. The whole assembly is then bonded together into a completely new jewel.
I’ve ended up making a few different styles along the way. There’s an OEM-style range for restorations, some custom designs, holographic versions, and even a few colour-matched experiments to complement different shell colours.
I’d love to hear what the community thinks. Are there any designs you’d like to see? Any colours or themes that would be an instant buy for your collection?
