Zero 2 Fightstick - Cabling / Wiring Install

In this follow up series to the original Zero to Fightstick, you'll again see how to build/assemble your very own arcade controls from the ground up. If you've wanted to know how to build your own stick but weren't sure how, this is meant to be your resource. This time you'll learn how to build an even more advanced setup, if that's your thing, or you can use just the information you need to build the setup of your choice.

This episode is a long one, meant to show my process for installing cables into one of my fightsticks (Skittles) with some running commentary. (Mostly) shot as a one take. This is meant to let beginners see how I do it, so they can gain confidence in their building/assembly skills and get ideas.

Since this was recorded, I've changed to a USB-C port for the secondary board and added a USB hub with a small flash drive; great for carrying around utilities, etc.

Some of the tools/parts used: iFixit precision screwdriver kit, industrial strength Velcro, Wago 211 splicing wire connectors, adhesive cable retainers, & cable ties/zip strips.
