Building a Sim Racing Rig DIY!

With basic welding and cutting skills anyone should be able to build a diy cockpit - rig setup like in this video.
This is how I built a sim racing cockpit - rig in just a few days! I wanted a simple design that would look clean and professional.

These were the final dimensions of the rig (exculding the extra 50+mm in height caused by the caster wheels):
Height to the steering wheel mounting plate = 650mm
Height to the seat mount = 200mm
Height to the pedal box mounting plate = 100mm
Total lenght of rig = 1220mm
Total width of rig = 590mm
Pipe thickness = 45mm
* The pipe that the steering mount plate is connected to is 340mm in from the front of the rig
* The seat centre is approx 300mm from the rear of the rig
* The pedal box to seat is approx 750mm (centre to centre)
* The steering mount plate to seat mount plate is approx 400mm

Anything you wish you’d done differently now you’ve had it for a while?

Dude this was awesome. I was only listening to the first part so when I started watching you were just drawing the coloring book and I thought you were actually making drafts. I was dying laughing 😂

[manasdas]

Can you do an update on this project ? Do you have a proper diagram kinda thing for this project or photos? Since it'll be my first trying something like this

[menacegtr]

Brilliant mate, very well made and explained👍👍

[netmoe]

its simplicity in design is what makes it so sleek. Congrats on the build. 2 years since you made this. Do you still have it?

[jimmyzureikat]

Looks sick and wonderful work. Loving it!
By any chance, do you have the sketch up for this build, like a drawing etc. thanks

Wie het die pyp vir jou gebuig ?

[ItzDien]

Hi which clamps are you using if we may ask please

[ruffcutt]

This looks so cool, roughly how much did this cost you to build

[avibank]

Good job. Looks pro. Did you build that giant desk too? Is it Formica? Looking to build something similar.

Looks great! How do you only have 3k subs?
