A gamer customized their PlayStation controller by taking it apart, sanding, and painting it. The process involved removing the original buttons and replacing them with new ones. However, the new buttons didn't fit perfectly, and the gamer had to improvise. After several setbacks, the controller was reassembled, and the paint job was completed. The finished product had a black back, long triggers, and green buttons with the gamer's name, "anthrax," on it. The controller was functional, except for the middle button, and the gamer was generally pleased with the result.
