using drywall compound nsty. Figure that section looked like a bunch of "slats" so why not give it a try. No stress point there so I got nothing to loose. I'll let ya know how it works out.

That looks really nice. Im thinking of making something to play on...not so much a beautiful simpit like you guys made, but something I can sit back in, with the moniter close to me, and support for my arms. ATM my stick and throttle are on a table thats fairly high. Extended play makes my neck hurt from keeping my arms raised for so long. Picture lawn furniture, a TV tray, and a bedpan...thats pretty much my dream

Picture a recliner with the sides stripped and modified to hold your stick and opposite side throttle now the foot rest could hold
your pedals.Monitor could be mounted permanently on the wall angled to your liking or mounted on a moveable tray....off-balance motors to vibrate and wake you up on those long
B-17,lanc,B-24 runs

....see what i mean ? possibilities are endless for simpit builders..
