    I want to show you the first step of my actual buttonbox project.
    After my first try ended in a design fail (box didn't fix well on my desktop:(), i decided to try it again. This time with the help of my (now halfways working) DIY 3d printer.

    The right panel is containing:
    1 x big red engine startbutton
    5 x killswitch with cover
    8 x pushbutton (with "angel eyes" lighting)

    The left panel has:
    4 x encoder
    1 x 3-way-switch
    1 x combination of 6-way-switch (preselect) and pushputton (activate)
    2 x 2-way double rocker switch
    2 x 1-way switch/rocker switch combination

    What is planned:
    - mounting the panels directly to my G29
    - integrated USB hub
    - holder for celular/tablet
    - socket for at least one analogue input (managed by the used Arcaze board) to connect a handbrake
    - multi color design and backlighting
    - modular design, means separate housing for the controllerboad to use it for different sorts of gamecontrollers

    Constructive criticism and suggestions are very welcome!
