Some D or T nuts would be ideal to insert into the wooden frame first for the bolts to then screw in to, but of course that puts the cost up a bit. My only concern being over time the bolts will start to release from the wood because as you said they’re technically not designed for griping into wood
Great video, loved the detail! Just wanted to check, did you drill any holes in the wood first? Or were the Fanatec bolts ok at biting straight into the wood?
Hi Jake, since I built the DIY mounting frame I have purchased a GT Omega stand, but I assure you, the cheap mounting frame worked perfectly! The only reason I bought the GT Omega stand was due to the fact I got a new desk that shook from the force feedback from my Fanatec wheel so I had no choice (didn't like seeing my monitor bounce all over the place). If you are interested in the stand, I have a video putting it together (th-cam.com/video/Fs1w2Rtj4gk/w-d-xo.html). Let me know if you would be interested to see it in action. Thank you for watching and for commenting. Hopefully my video helped. Cheers!
@@AdzzVR That's awesome! Isn't it nice to be able to have resistance in braking and not have your pedals move across the floor? Happy racing my friend!
Hi all, I was new to streaming when I made this video. Do yourself a favor and skip over my craft beer plug and skip to 1:50. Cheers and Blue Skies!!
Thanks gonna do this tomorrow
You are most welcome! Glad this helps.
Love the unboxing video. These always make me excited when I buy something and I'm waiting for it to arrive. Great video, thanks!

They will be fine for what he is using them for

Great question! I predrilled small holes first then drilled the bolts in.
Thank you for watching and for your question!
Just stumbled across this video :) Im having problem with my pedals lifting when hard braking so this could be the solution
Hi there! Thank you for watching and for commenting. It works great, think you will like it. Cheers!
wish we could see it in use!

Can this be done for the csl load cell pedals ?
Hi Victor. I can't imagine why not.
Thank you for watching!
@@SimFanatic thanks I actually went ahead and did it a few days ago managed to set the braking force to 60%.

Did anybody catch which bolts he was using?
Hi there, thank you for watching and for commenting. I used the short bolts that came with the pedals.
Hope this helps!
@@SimFanatic perfect, thanks for responding! :)
@@sw4rml0gic You are most welcome. :)
