Although there isn't one nationally, some individual states have a sales tax. Texas's is evidently 7% (ish?) of the total transaction. Pennsylvania's is 6%...

The 6% is to tax tourists who wish to see the Amish folk?

Actually residents of neighboring states come to PA to shop because the state sales tax doesn't apply to food and clothing, unlike in their home states.

Nice to see you back skullman "S"

It is built to be easily placed in any location with enough footprint (about 60"x32")
and in about 20 minutes assembly time, with a single crescent wrench.
All welded steel frame and aluminum diamond plate floor.

Building things out of steel is kind of a hobby of mine. This just gave me somthing else to think about and design.

Ya Pretty cool, but it needs to be enclosed to get the full effect of flying, as outside stimulus takes away from the feel.

I thought about motion, but just wanted a simpler simpit. mine is easy to build and works flawlessly as it has no moving parts.

You're only partially correct.
It's actually ELK camouflage,and it works as well for that as it does for a simulator cover.
Thats exactly what I do-take my simulator out to the woods start it up and fly around looking for elk to shoot by the sign I find from inside my simulator like this:
(http://i729.photobucket.com/albums/ww293/68valu/rub-1.jpg)

and then shoot the elk with my FM2 50 cal's like this one:

and this one:
