Oh yeah, this sounds familiar. Was it also on the DDR subreddits a while ago?
I meant to ask the first time I saw it -- if I'm understanding this correctly, the entire frame consists of parts that can be either printed or just sourced off-the-shelf? I've personally had "pad build" on my backlog, and have been playing around with modifications of the Cobalt Flux design on paper ever since a failed attempt to put one on risers (apartment noise issues...), but wood- and/or metalworking have generally been barriers to actual implementation.
Maintaining it up until that point is actually also how I DIY'd my first controller (to replace a broken USB adapter), and finally learned to solder.
(It also just became less of an issue between living in a region with a few different cabinets I could drive to and the L-Tek pad releasing around a year or so later.)
- kadoban 6y agoYeah there's two projects I know of that have been making their rounds on reddit and discord. This one just released today, and seems like the more interesting one to me. There's also a 9-panel project called Rhythm Horizon (used to be called Impulse I think?) that's I think going to be sold fully assembled. I've been looking through the plans, yeah it seems like all the parts so far are either 3d printed or can be bought "off the shelf". Only exception I found so far is seems like you have to solder on a small number of components on a pcb the way they've suggested to order it. I am still working through the sourcing though, so take with a grain of salt.
