Plenty of airfow.
-
If his computer is anything like mine (and I assume it is since I bought that case for the clone of my computer I made for Erika), then it doesn't need any airflow. Minuscule temps no matter how massive the blob. It helps out a lot to get rid of the air filter on the CPU fan intake too.
This thread makes me wish I had money.

Hell smedddd no reason to flame. I would go so far as to inquire if you made plans for it. :devil
-
Allaire, I first bought the components, then measured my 45 year old body, developed some ideas from these dimensions on a napkin as to what would be ergonomically comfortable. Other than the napkin, I didn't make any plans. If you wish I can PM you with ideas, but it is pretty much all in the picture.
The critical dimensions are: butt to feet so you can get full travel on your rudder pedals. Seat angle...I wanted semi-reclined (F-16 style). Height of your monitors from the bottom of the seat so your not straining your neck for a good view. Throttle position and key board position after you scope out the seat position. Build the monitor support box first. Place the pedals and then produce the correct side lengths to place the seat correctly (based on your inseam). I used washers to shim up the front of the seat for a resultant inclination. I forgot to design in a cup holder....crap!!
The room I painted in Panther camo to keep my wifes decorative medling out.
The chair is straight office depot mail-order minus the bottom spinning base part.
The frame is 1 1/2 inch schedule 40 PVC which has the largest selection of shapes at home depot/lowes and is light, strong (I weigh 165 lbs), relatively cheap and easy to work with. 22 degree PVC elbows are your friend !!!
The PVC glue dries in 5 - 10 seconds so you'd better get the angles correct; (read... measure twice, assemble dry first, matchmark first before glueing).
It took me two tries to get the throttle quadrant correct (left side of rig), which is barely visible in the picture. That was the hardest part.
I recommend a mitre saw to save time hacking and maintain the 90 degree cuts for PVC; but it isn't a requirement. This isn't a fluid transfer system.
The cross members are those wardrobe moving box coat hanger metal bar things fastened W/ 1/4 - 20 fasteners. Home depot sells them too.
I bolted the cross members vice glue because I wanted to be able to take it apart without a saw! Only the port and stbd sides are glued.
The key board is on bearings so it swings out of the way when needed.
The two green studs sticking out from under the monitors hold the X52 when not in use. I have the stick mounted on a I-beam shaped slab of mahogany between my legs while in game for stability.
The rig doesn't lower your death per sortie ratio...LOL :cool:

Yea, I have no need for "true" airflow. I do have a large intake fan behind the front door panel, dual exhaust fans mounted on the back, there is one intake fan on the top of the tower that brings cool air to the processor, and as you can see, wraped around the heatsink, there is an exhaust fan on the side panel. Video card even has it's on cooling fan. My system doesn't "need" fans because the primary component has direct cooling from the top and exhaust on the side. The large intake fan and dual exhaust is just a bonus. Also, now you all know I use a keyboard and mouse. :salute

I wish I didn't go 24" for my main, triple head not avail (yet). 22 or even 19 would have been the way to go with this in mind. Would love to fly a setup with the triple head working.

Sorry to drag the topic off, but Dale's death was actually the strangest moment in my life. I was sitting there watching the race when he hit the wall. My chest started hurting, my scalp felt like it was peeling off toward the floor, and I turned around without even thinking and said "He's dead." Mom told me I was silly.
I was right.

yep...was a sad day fo sho ooz :(

I was right.
I was watching the race, saw the accident, the finish and turned off the TV. I didn't find out he died until the next day. It really didn't look like much of an accident and I didn't think anything of it at the time.
It ended up being a pretty high price to pay blocking to get his guys across the finish line 1-2.
And poor Sterling Marlin with the death threats and stuff after that for what amounted to a racing accident.
