Well the bigger of the two woody controllers (basically the first one I made ever) always had vinyl issues. It bubbled and twisted around the bolt heads for the stick when I tightened them, and there was just no way to get it to look good once that happened. I've also gotten a lot better in laying large piece of vinyl since then.

 

So I stripped the vinyl last night, and with a leather punch, was able to alleviate the screw issue PRE tightening this time by simply making holes bigger than the heads. I had a Real Sports sticker and some green vinyl and said..why not make a sports stick?
