 PTT TS-1202 button is glued with hot glue to the left half part just under the PBS-10B2 tip, which is glued into the trigger (adjust its position so the PBS-10 button tip will push to the center of it). If you like, you can also use a spring from the PBS-26 button - put a nut onto the PBS-10B2 button, fix it with a tiny drop of hot glue, and put the spring between PBS-10B2 and TS-1202 buttons. PTT TS-1202 button is glued with hot glue to the left half part just under the PBS-10B2 tip, which is glued into the trigger (adjust its position so the PBS-10 button tip will push to the center of it).

 Fix wires with hot glue (make sure screw holes are not covered with wires!), add some glue to an ethernet cable. After joining halves of the stick together and tightening (be gentle!) screws, attach a trigger with an m3x40mm screw. Insert the screw to around 80%, add a small drop of hot glue to fix it in place, insert it fully, wipe any leftover glue with a paper towel (use a knife if needed, hot glue can be removed easily). Put an M8 washer and a nut on a bolt that protrudes from the bottom of a stick. Fix wires with hot glue (make sure screw holes are not covered with wires!), add some glue to an ethernet cable.
