Tips on making an arcade stick from scratch?

Anybody got any tips or tricks on building a stick completely on one's own?

I've done some stick modding before, but building my own from scratch seems like a fun project.
 
check out byoac.com

it's a HUGE source of info on all things do-it-yourselfish when it comes to arcade sticks and cabinets
 
Thanks for all your help guys, I'll check those sites now! Also, is that where I'd buy a case?

I "know" what I'm doing, I haven't like sold sticks to anybody but I've modded three of em. I'm just sick of working with crappy plastic & metal & no space in the box, and just want a taller wood case. One of my friends has a lot of wood working tools, so he can probably a) cut the wood to the size I want, b) cut the holes in it, c) make everything hold together. I've got the soldering stuff.
 
So, in case anybody's reading this still, slagcoin is pretty much the amazing DIY arcade stick resource out there.

Thanks for all the help! I'll probably post in the forum about how it goes.
