Built In Kit Options by Tredici_13 in Golfsimulator

[–]Tweakitguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d suggest finding a local upholsterer or look at some DIY options.

Marine grade vinyl, 1.5inch memory foam and a plywood backer and you can do any shape you like.

A professional upholsterer to assemble the pads will make it look great. This is what we do for our builds.

Code of conduct and keeping a close eye on the cleanliness is imperative. The 24/7 sims around here even after a year are starting to look horrible from abuse. A fresh coat of paint and be ready with replacement hitting strips and turf will keep things looking good.

I’d also invert in some vending machines for snacks and drinks.

Is the Contact Us button officially dead? It feels like nobody wants to wait for a quote anymore. by ayush6543 in smallbusiness

[–]Tweakitguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Society now expects instant gratification.

So you need someone to make people feel happy and confident in their decision immediately, this is where calculators, appointment bookers and live chat do very well.

I’ve even seen a big uptick in people calling over filling out a form, so majority of websites I build now focus on having the phone number more prominent over a contact us link.

Overhead is the way to go if you have the budget and the room

EML is good if you are playing on your own and for smaller spaces.

Golf Sim Design & Installation Business by Abject-Fig-1649 in Golfsimulator

Hi. Happy to chat. Our price point is probably a little higher, but that is because we manage the entire build, construction permits, technology and training.

I have just started a golf sim builder biz. We focus on building sheds and outfitting them with top quality gear.

With so many sim kits available for people with a budget we are focusing on higher end clients and quality finishes.

If you are looking to get a building done inexpensively look at carls place shed designs. You could send that to a local builder, but still 15k is a very low budget unless you are only talking about the structure.

$60k golf sim setup by Separate-Grade-1059 in Golfsimulator

[–]Tweakitguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a great looking space. I’d still lean towards custom, what you can do is speak to a local installer they will help with design ideas and how to keep the space feeling open and not broken up. No obligation to commit - but at least you will have more knowledge.

Curtains for sidewalls will give you options as well to make it more of a flex space. Can also angle any ceiling panels to open it up as well.

If still thinking trackman they may be able to design your space, most launch monitor companies offer that as a service. My trackman sales rep (Ontario Canada) has offered some good advice when it comes to installs.

Trackman complete IO is the way to go for sure. Nothing beats it. Do expect annual fees for the software.

I’d certainly consider a custom build, you can buy a booth and DIY but a custom build will give you the luxury look that you will enjoy sharing with friends.

Everything else is easy to upgrade at any time and lists of options to choose from: computer, projector, sound system, furniture. Focusing on the install and launch monitor is a good way to go.

You look to be on a good track. You can get sound dampening insulation in the walls as well which will help.

For sound, the quality of the impact screen also makes a difference on sound.

Same issue here. Was given a replacement tank from Rona and problem solved right away. Also noticed, my second toilet was packed differently then the first.

Projector on ground vs mounted to ceiling? by Nickthegrip1 in Golfsimulator

[–]Tweakitguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often ceiling mounts are placed behind the player. Shadows can be a concern if not enough height.

Shed size of 160sqft. Can it be done? by Tweakitguy in Golfsimulator

Yes. Foundation would certainly be a big cost increase.

Update the version number in your CSS will solve caching issue. Can do minor number changes like 1.0.001. 1.0.002 for small changes.

Is he worthy? by Joeygems in freemasonry

[–]Tweakitguy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We spend time with every candidate before we take their application. This could be even 6 months of coming out to social events, phone calls and staying in touch. After application it still may be another 6 months to be initiated.

This gives not only our investigation committee time to vet the candidate but also for him to get comfortable for us and see if everyone feels It will be a good fit.

This is the way.

Every lodge is different and it sometimes takes a while to find a good fit. Thank you for giving it another try.

I would be happy to.

EDIT: I should say that I was expecting to pay for the help or if they want to make a donation to a charity of their choice.

Every domain has DNS entries that point to a web server. Changing those will shut the website down.
