3D printed N64 joystick parts

[Windjammer]

im ordering 1 of each MODEL type from shapeways to see what the quality/accuracy is like as a TEST

KnitePhox, did you end up receiving these yet? I'd be curious to see what your personal opinion of them was. Definitely hopeful something good can come from all this.

They were full on garbage, wouldn't recommend over Chinese knock off 64 control sticks, THAT bad. I'll post a video of how I broke one putting small amount of tension, these things would NEVER EVER stand up to even the WEAKEST di. 1/10 wouldn't recommend. They get 1 point for accuracy of shape, and that's the only positive thing about the stick only. The elbows get -5/10. I don't wana type more than I have, the only thing to take away from my experience is steer FULLY CLEAR of these brawl level parts.

R.I.P. the 3D printed dream

so was it the material they were made out of that made them so bad? and if thats the case is there other materials that 3d parts can be printed from?
