Post your sticks! (if you use them.)

It's a pretty well kept secret that keyboards > stick. And hitboxes are pretty much keyboards.
One important difference though. Keyboards allow for SOCD (Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions) which allow for things you can't normally do in fighting games (walk forward Sonic Booms and shizz). HitBoxes, do not allow for SOCDs since Toodles programmed a way to catch and block them in the custom firmware f the Cthulhu boards he provides HitBox.
 
Project TwinTail. A modified Playtech Pro Arcade PS3/PS2 stick done for a friend. The name comes from the fact that it has a double headed "twin tailed" cable with both a USB(PS3) and a PS2 connector.

Do sticks help one's execution? I'm a complete doofus and often throw out completely the wrong move or drop easy combos. This happens far more frequently online, but still. Does it make doing the moves easier? If it's relevant, I play my controller piano style, pressing the right-side buttons with my fingers rather than my thumb.
