This is a replacement Xbox One joystick, that's been specifically designed to be extended. Update: To all the amazing people who've already downloaded this, I've got some bad news - it needed a major overhaul. It's now updated and ready for printing by you!

Note 2: And if it does print successfully, make sure to let me know if it breaks down on you - I need feedback for an upcoming project.

Print Settings Printer: New Matter MOD-t Rafts: Yes Supports: Yes Resolution: Go with the best quality setting your printer can handle! Infill: I recommend using 90% infill with a layer height of .15 Notes: Keep an eye on this print every 20 minutes or so to prevent warping of the base. But trust me, it's worth it - the end result is amazing! Post-Printing Sanding: Make sure to sand down the shaft and dome to get a smooth finish.
