I built a fightstick!
I built a fightstick the other week! Mostly for Street Fighter 6, though I have played some other 2D games including Hades and River City Girls with it as well.
Parts:
-Brook UFB Fusion board for compatibility with PS4/5, XBOX 360 and above, Switch, Wii U, PC and more
-Crown 309 Helpme K ST35 lever
-Qanba Gravity KS buttons for the top and Seimitsu standard for the sides
-Custom enclosure kit from Eternal Rival

Woah this looks amazing. Now I have a new project to add to the list! Got any videos of it in use? How does it feel? Did you document the build process?
Damn you for opening up these possibilities!
I don't have videos yet, but I'll post something soon!
It feels awesome. The action buttons have a great feel that's between clicky and mushy and they don't make a ton of noise when I mash them.
This was my first experience with a Korean lever. The stick actuator pushes on a silicone grommet which pushes the four directional switches. The result is it feels like the gate is a big circle while I still hear a click confirming when I press or release a direction. I find this makes special move inputs easier. The caveats are you need an adapter for the cables to work with a Japanese style stick, (which I bought with my joystick for an extra buck) and you need a 35mm hole for the "collar" and horizontal holes drilled in the mounting plate to accomodate. Fortunately Eternal Rival took care of all of that when I put my order for the kit together.
Here's the build manual from Eternal Rival which should explain how it all goes together
