    Nothing fancy - just MDF sides, chipboard base, office chair backs and the secret ingredient:
    90 reinforced brackets from Bunnings to stiffen it up.

    Sorry it took a while Clevo !

    Looks good mate, sort of reminds me of this. You have the base to build something like it anyway ;)

    SBS isn't delivering like they used to, the "Soccer" and "Subtitles" from S.B.S. are all still there, but not so much "B00bs" !

    Rig's coming along nicely Clevo, keep up the good work chief !

    Hey Clevo, Only just noticed this thread today, awsome!, been trying to workout a setup for myself that wouldnt look like :):):):) in the lounge & have clothes & crap hanging all over it when not on use, little ones with sticky fingers jumpin on all the time to play vrmm vrmms, cat sleeping on the seat etc. Setup like a coffin any :):):):) someone puts on top is going on the floor when I open it :)

    Got plenty of crap in the shed I can put this together with just means taken the minimal time avail for racin to do it, if you've sat in it and the length width is all good some outer diamiters of the box would be handy

    Cheers!

    Yeah mate no probs. I am 6' 2" so the size of the box could be trimmed for a shorter/slimmer bloke ;)

    Base is 1800 x 900 x 32.

    Box outside diameters: sides - 1800 x 532, Ends - 900 x 532.

    So the walls are 18mm MDF screwed and glued on top of the base, the base is an old desk top I got off my father in law.

    The console width is 200mm. I will get more measurements for you over the weekend like seat position, shifter position etc..

    Its cool was more just the length x width, would have thought 1800 would be to long conciderin your not laying down in it or does it need that much once you lay the seat back and the required room for the peddles?

    Yeah, seat rests hard back on end, and the base slides hard up to the batten at the front of the pedal board when folded down.

    Would greatly depend on seat size, before I found the race seat I was considering a speed boat seat for its compact folded size and low height back.

    When seat set up there is a little space behind it.
