Are there any deals on atm? I got my son the Bart and Homer packs in addition to the others. He has his eyes on the sonic, Ghostbuster (Peter.. not the new lame ones :D) and ET packs.
 
Thank you. The MKI which I made a few years ago wasn't sturdy enough so I made sure I built this as stable as possible. The front section is pretty much 3 sheets of 18mm MDF for the side panels with double thickness shelving and metal bracing for the wheel mount. It's monumentally heavy but I did design it to be reasonably modular if I should move house.

There's a pedal set on seat runners in the nose section to allow forward and backwards movement. The seat is also on runners so that's adjustable too. There are 4 Buttkickers - 2 under the seat, 1 under the pedals and 1 under the shifter for tacktile feedback (runs off software called Simvibe which converts telemetry information into feedback to simulate gearshifts, road texture, engine vibrations, impacts etc).

Under the monitor there's an Android phone which provides a simulated electronic dashboard (pretty much redundant now with VR). I used rotary dials, switches and buttons for various functions on the main dashboard panels. These still get used when in the Rift.

The cover at the back of the monitor houses an Oculus CV1 sensor for VR duties.

Hang on, you made that? Bloody hell, that's some fantastic work, well done :eek:
 
Decided to spoil myself for my 40th with a 2017 Whyte 905, as my old GT Chucker XS1 has seen far better days

Who stole the front chainrings?

It's a trail orientated bike, so only really needs a 1x11 setup on it. The front chainring is a narrow wide one (well SRAM's version of it called X-SYNC), which helps stop the chain from jumping off the chainring

These things are like gold dust nowadays. Finally got one delivered from Amazon randomly. Originally said they hoped it would be in stock 2-3 months, but only took 2wks to be delivered :)

I actually made money on selling mine a couple of months ago :O

New one is coming out I think, but it's similar to the old one.
 
I know I am considering selling it and getting the new one (says delivery mid January).
But specs look awfully similar and I wouldn't use any of the new features. Purely just a plex/netflix streamer.
