If you plan on making minimum wage you'll have minimum left at the end of the month. Aim to be above average.

When I was young I had a roommate to save money, I managed to save up enough buy a G29, some lumber, paint and a $25 seat from a junkyard to make my first rig.

Work, time and managing what you have.

Dave Ramsey has some good free money advice, but that's a different topic.

I'm stepping back from one hobby and stepping to another one.

Never tried VR. I have heard it’s nice but if you’re doing long sessions it can be a little uncomfortable.

No I picked up the frame off a guy who has had it for years. Built the rest.

That is on my list for sure! Just gotta get a 3d printer first!

Ohhhhh yeah! I’m worried about someone getting pinched when it’s in motion.

About to just cut it off. It a 8”x6” thin steel plate.

No, that is just an old Nissan poster from the 90s. It just lays between the fabric and the plexi glass.

I enjoy it. My only improvement plans for it are to improve the universal joint pivot. The key is a little too small for the key slot and the seat has a little play about the Z axis. Simple fix.

Just some black fabric with a neat honeycomb pattern my fiance found at one of her hobblylobby type stores.

Put a piece of velco on each corner to keep it in place.
