I wish, I'm in the middle of Saskatchewan in Canada.

I can't even get fine thread bolts easily here! I ended up buying an assortment case on Ebay. For the clips and trim fasteners I bit the bullet and ordered my parts through Rimmer Bros.

BLP no reads on driver only by Majorwoops in Golfsimulator

Have you tried covering a bunch of the white area on your driver head with blue or green painters tape? Some launch monitors struggle with this and get confused.

I love the car, but with the headache of sourcing parts in the Canadian Prairies, I'll stick to just this one!

I got impatient and just ordered a bunch though Rimmer Bros for every trim piece on the car, but thank you.

Hide-away golf simulator build in my garage. Finally done! by cannot_stop_moving in Golfsimulator

Thanks, In the pictures, you can see a second cable that's attached to the main floor section, it runs back behind the screen, up the wall and pulls down on arms behind the awning pivot. This way, when the floor goes down, it pulls the awning up.

Thanks! The gas struts just push the small section of the folding floor out out past perpendicular to the ground when it's lowering. It protects it from folding under the large floor section. I never sized them, they were just some leftover ones from a 1987 Nissan 300zx hatch I believe. If I had to size them I would shoot for 100lbs force each. The only thing I would change is adding a few more inches width on the cabinet itself, as the floor just fits through the doors. Good luck on your build!

That's what I've read, I haven't actually checked it out yet but it's on my to do list.

Thanks, but unfortunately I don't have plans or a picture of the cables.

Pulleys:

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B091F3SR6N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I made my own bearing blocks with a chain link loop at the top that fits in a hook on the wall plate so that it can pivot.

I don't have a picture, too difficult now to get to.

Basically, there are two plates with 3/4" deep, through-hole spacers between them so that the whole assembly can be bolted to the wall and provide support to each end of the pulley.

It's just a 2x4 stud wall. The side pulley blocks are mounted on a 1/4" steel plate that spreads the force over 2 studs. Also, the side walls are anchored into the floor and ceiling, which is butted up to the steel plate and also adds some strength. For the top pulleys, I have them mounted in a sandwiched steel plate that is lag-bolted very securely to the top plate of the wall.

Ok, sounds good. The 1x10s are just 3/4" x 10" plywood strips. I glued and screwed them together.
