Completed X-box Controller Color Modification

Products,

A long time ago when we first started Walke Designs one of the first ideas we had was to modify X-Box 360 controllers. We have really abandoned this idea for a while because it is such a simple thing to be done that anyone can do it. Even though its really simple not everyone wants to do it and upon seeing my controllers I have been contracted by a friend to modify two of his controllers. I decided to show what I have done here for everyone to see and keep notice of what Walke Designs is up to.



As you can see the modification is only an aesthetic one.



To commercially sell this product to anyone I would have to charge $20 for the basic button modification (Bumpers, Joysticks, bottom pane and triggers) that is assuming you supply the controller. If the controller is not supplied then I would need to raise the basic price to $70 to compensate for that. If you want anything beyond that (such as the yellow controller) we would need to discuss the modifications and come up with a custom price. If you are interested please drop us a line at info@walkedesigns.com.

Fall 2012 Update

Products, ,

We have been busy with many things here at Walke Designs and unfortunately have not been able to keep regular updates here on the website. Most of our exploits have been centralized around our school and work duties and thus Walke Designs has not officially done much.

We have not done much but have recently been contracted for three projects one of which we have already finished. I wanted to give an update on these to show what Walke Designs is doing.

We were contracted to make a plastic bending device for a local sign maker. The plastic being bent is around 1/8 of an inch thick and 2 ply. We put together the plastic bender simply by insulating a heating element attached to a piece of wood. The heating element is also grounded to provide a little bit of safety. We estimate that if we were going to sell one we would need to sell it for about $200. That would cover all of our parts and labor costs. See below for some pictures of the final product. If you might be interested in purchasing one please contact us at info@walkedesigns.com.

We have been re-contracted to work on a Christmas lighting display for a church. This is the original project Walke Designs completed last Christmas. Basically the display will have a manger scene that will be light up separate parts at different times. We will have a really product here and need to be finished with this by thanks giving. If you might be interested in contracting Walke Designs please contact us at info@walkedesigns.com.

We also have been conscripted in the creation of an iPhone (and possibly Android later) application. The customer has designed and produced a board game and wishes to take it to the digital realm with an app. This is a different direction from our previous work being as this will be completely a software product. This project will be quite a large undertaking and will grow our business into a new realm. If you might be interested in contracting Walke Designs please contact us at info@walkedesigns.com.
