| Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| 2x EC11 Rotary Encoders (Detents Removed) | 1.80 |
| 1x Knockoff Arduino Pro Micro | 5.00 |
| 7x Gateron Brown Switches | ~2.00 |
| 2x Rotary Encoder Knobs (or 3D print if you have 3D Printer) | 1.00 |
| 7x Cherry Keycaps (Any can work, suggest at least 2.0u) | Free |
| 2x Plywood Scraps, Wires | Free |
| M2 Standoffs with M2 Screws | Basically Free |
| Total: | CA$9.80 (US$6.90) |
- Original laser cutting outline assumed using stablizers, but the wood was too thick so its still in there
- EC11 has resolution of 20ppr, compared to the usual 600ppr from the original controllers
- It uses normal keyboard keycaps, compared to Sanwas with a larger area to press.
- Knobs are not as large, 3D printing the normal size can solve this (I had a 3D printed knob cover but I lost the file)

The two pieces were sandwiched by countersinking screws and using the M2 standoffs and screws to assemble them togther. The pieces of wood was laser cut using a Trotec 3000.
