Taking the big mystery and inhibition out of my project. I love you man. (Plutonically). BTW I got arc eye watching this so I'm suing. 🤣. Can't wait for the next instalment. I'm still collecting my bits and bobs. Slowly but surely getting there. Managed to get a UJ from the buy who repairs our trucks at work. So another freebie in the bag. I think I'm about 60% there with the bits I need. So far I've spent £40.
Terry, you know you cant sue for an 'arc eye' from watching my videos.. Haha.. The U joint (crappy as it was ended up costing me $20 but since I used both ends on two rigs, the price is about right. I appreciate you taking the time to comment! There was a lot of mystery and delay in my first project so that's why I'm making this little series.. Shining the light on it a bit.. DMAX
@@terryteed1903 All good my friend.. Actually found some time during all the rain to work on part 3.. She's ready for the arduino now.. Should be posting soon! DMAX
@D Max HI, new to your channel and love the content so far. I was grateful to find them as I was debating on fabricating my own motion simulator however had zero prior experience\knowledge... but that's never stopped me before. Out of curiosity, is your background in engineering or are you self taught?
Jerry You’re Amazing Buddy. I’m gonna share your videos everywhere I go. I want you to be TH-cam Famous. Thank you for the great tutorial and Also My Best Wishes during this Hurricane Situation ❤️👍
@@hippysplace So I'm trying to build it out the existing static rig parts. You could pretty much just drill some holes and bolt it together instead of welding but welding is cool and I only caught myself on fire 3 times so.. ;) To answer the question. just a little bit more. I'll weigh up the changes in the next video. DMAX
Thanks for the comment B! Yah it's pretty relaxing.. even for me.. I totally dig making stuff and all that! Keep Tuning In cause I am always coming up with something cool to see!! DMAX
They are super cool once it's up and running, I remember that I actually had to swap the WW motors for higher power Wheelchair motors to make it convincing.. Dave
Thanks for the comment my friend! Yeah we managed to make it through ok.. But the people on the Louisiana coast got hammered.. I'm working on P3.. should be out soon! DMAX
Guys.. I finally took a look at this video replay.. I was pretty friggin sick!! I sounded like crap and sorry about that.. BUT.. This project is about to wrap up! So keep watchin.. DMAX
Thanks Nick! That means a lot to me.. Hope to help someone out who may be interested in this cool stuff. New series just out and new video coming this week.. It's almost done. Check back if you have time! Called Compact 3DOF motion sim or something like that..😀
I didn't get noticed when this was posted m8. Anyway wow this is great to show people these skills. Your a very nolagible man. Great video m8. 10 out of 10!
Thanks my friend! I'm just trying to show how to "DIY" stuff.. not just buy it.. You can build stuff you see that costs thousands of bucks for a fraction of the cost if you want.. You gotta just try to to it.. Hope this helps out !! DMAX
Thanks for the comment Bandit! Yeah, it's pretty cool. I did not know how to do it before starting the SIM RIG thing.. but I'm glad I bought one and although the welds are not the best, the seem to work and it's way easier with a wire welder than with a stick welder.. I always look forward to firing it up!!! DMAX
Thanks for the comment. I'm appreciate you saying that cause I never know unless someone let's me know about things like that. I'll take your advice on the next video.. DMAX
@@splitcurve2457 Thanks for replying back with a super great comment! Yeah, I don't know about the music either.. It's a pain to do, cause it's an extra hour or so.. It's hard enough to get the audio levels 'ok' without the music.. I just want to help folks out who 'MAYBE" want to build one of these things!.. Well.. I'll see you on the next vid.. I'll be 'testing' it out.. Thanks for tuning in !! Dave

@@DMAX_DIY hope you've made it through the storm mate. Give us a nod to to let us know you're all okay.

One day I hope to have a setup like this. I love these video's!

Cool comment my friend! Just trying to fill in the grey areas on how to modify a static rig. Hope it helps somebody. On to Part 3.. DMAX
Nice!
Get through the storm well mate !
Yeah I battened down the hatches.. It's definitely heading this way..
@@DMAX_DIY Fly High- Never Die!
I got my fingers crossed - no problemo []-)
@@DMAX_DIY save??? dry?? electricity?
Thanks Brother this is great! Can't wait for part 3
Thanks my brother.. I appreciate the comment! I'm plugging along.. I hope it helps out some guys who might consider the DIY approach. DMAX
@@DMAX_DIY I really wanna do this but I don't weld and was wondering how heavy do you think it will be?

@@DMAX_DIY Thanks Brother that would be cool and I will be watching!
Is it odd to find this video relaxing? 😂 Love seeing your expertise in action and walking us through your thought process and execution. Very cool.

Great build Sir ….. I’m starting this next month and I’m glad i found this video because i had no idea where i was starting from

That is one amazing build! I am waiting for pt. 3!
Stay safe in that hurricane buddy!
Thanks for the comment my friend! Yeah we managed to make it through ok.. But the people on the Louisiana coast got hammered.. I'm working on P3.. should be out soon! DMAX
I missed this before bud so catching up and can't get over how talented you are with this stuff
Thanks John. It's not talent.. It's stubbornness probably! haha! It's cool being able to post stuff like this and potentially help someone out! DMAX
That is really awesome. Amazing build my Racing friend. Cheers.
Thanks my friend for the comment! I appreciate it for sure.. I'll keep posting this stuff!! DMAX
Fascinating as always my friend. The amount of stuff you know how to do is impressive.
Thanks my friend.. Really, I just try to do stuff and sometimes it works out pretty good.. Other times - not so much! Hahah
You are An inspiration my friend, thank you for your video’s👊🏻
I appreciate that!

Cool my friend! Keep plugging away.. These motion sims are absolutely awesome! DMAX

This is some great engineering m8. I would love to learn how to weld!!

Thank you
Awesome videos but please turn the music down or off...
Thanks for the comment. I'm appreciate you saying that cause I never know unless someone let's me know about things like that. I'll take your advice on the next video.. DMAX
@@DMAX_DIY i will say this… you have inspired me to build my own rig!! I love your basic down to earth explanations. No music required ;)
