I’m approaching the end of building the initial batch of orders that I took once I announced the Vector Tankage (Battlezone) controller was ready. This means it’s time to restock on parts so that I’ve got everything I need in hand to make any future orders (which hopefully will come) my aim is to have … Read more
This week brings more Vector Tankage builds, and later in the week more Lunar Lander controllers too! I’m so happy that folks are getting to enjoy my creations and I hope that they love playing with them as much as I love making them to be played with. If you’d like to experience one of … Read more
We recently posted a short video covering the Vectrex/Atari side of the electronics that power our multi-platform twin stick Vector Tankage controller. We’d love to hear whether you’d like a more in-depth dive into this side of the controller design so leave a comment if you’d like to see more of this type of thing.
As there’s only one of me I like to optimise my manufacturing where possible, so for the last couple of days I’ve been focussed on making the various electrical sub-assemblies that make up some of the almost 200 individual components that go into each controller. These include the PCBs that are it’s brain, the various … Read more

The 3D printing is operating around the clock as each controller requires about 39 hours of printed parts. Aiming to get the next 5 controllers out of the … Read more
