All I can say is WOW! That is flat incredible. If my wife wouldnt string me up from the nearest pole (and if I didnt have to dig into the kids college funds), id start working on one this weekend. :D Absolutely Amazing!!

In the least gay way possible... can I come spend the night at your house bro?? Awesome work man. Make sure you let us know if you have any art work done to it. Oh, and don't forget to get that hula girl installed... it makes the cockpit :P

Nice work...! Suddenly it becomes apparent to me, a standard PC setup in the "man cave" ain't gonna cut it... :P

Well done, sir! .../tiphat

Mason Grimm, no fuzzy dice for me. I want plastic toy dinosaurs on the dash. <3 anyone who appreciates the reference.


+1 to the Firefly reference! Great job on this. I just wish I wasn't in military housing and could build my own creation like this. Props to you, sir! Props to you! :)

What can i add .. not much really ..
Very impressive

i have not read all the comment but as for the screw holes may i suggest ...
little plastic plugs (you get them with RTA furniture or hardware stores) easy to remove when need
or if the holes line up get stripes of self adhesive moulding (car pins stripe) - cover holes add to the design

I did see the screw holes anyway i am still over come with how awesome your gaming experience will be

thanks for sharing
Hairlok

I don't know if anybody has suggested this or not or if you already plan to, but this really needs a cupholder!

I'd also suggest some sort of compartment for snacks/drinks... but there really isn't room for that haha, I guess you could have a mini-fridge right next to where the seat pops out, but whatever. :huh:

future improvment ideas
1. lounge chair
2. slighty wider space
3. speakers on the chair
4. speakers more to the back
5. air conditionar
6. mini fridge
7. sound proofing
8. left handed setup (for me) ;)
9. tv to listen to the weather
10. thermometer
11. old fashion radio (in case of zombies etc.)
12. back up power (incase of no power)
13. whatever else i haven't thought of

You sir are a genius! I have always wanted to build a cockpit.. And now that we finally own our own home, I see this going under the stairs in the garage ;) Cuts into my bathroom expansion plans...and space.. But I can work with that.

That is awesome :( I feel as if I'd be cramp in there personally. I'm 6'7 and not tiny... but the whole concept is pretty awesome.
