most amazing project I've seen in a long time, I guess 2 more screens might be an upgrade.. 15:44 I think your only challenge is secure mounting solutions, that beast could handle much more
It might be time to buy a bandsaw for cutting metal stock. A horizontal would be nice but one of those handheld battery powered units would also work and be handy for other purposes.
Wow, that's a sweet resurrection. The screen shake (even after the springs) would make me crazy though. Try mounting something HEAVY on the back of the screen, should dampen it.
Very cool project! Looks great and lovely old-school, and the modern tech is neatly integrated. (going for the Mige really was the best way I think!) Personally I'd likely keep the monitor on a separate stand to completely alleviate the shaking issues. Having the panel move that much would distract me, and can't really be good for the monitor. (even if it is much better after the spring dampers) Might feel a bit like cheating perhaps by not having everything as one unit though :) I can definitely understand if you dont want to do as much rust repair for upcoming project, but kudos for resurrecting a worn abandoned piece of gaming history that otherwise would've been scrapped.
Thanks for your feedback! I put out this video before I actually did any tuning of the settings in SimTools....once I dialed in the settings for the motion with a little smoothing, the monitor barely shakes at all. In retrospect, I'm glad I went though all the work because it sure is fun to drive!
I was wondering if is safe to put a 1kw servo motor attached to a wheel and make no safety device between them . If there is an error , and servo begins to spin , i don't think u would want to have an 3000+ rpm hand on that wheel .
That is a valid concern...I have the servo driver limiting the RPM to much lower than 3000 and I installed an e-stop right next to the wheel...hopefully that never happens.
This is the most coolest thing i ever see in my entire life
As a sim racing fan, this video is very enjoyable to watch.
One of the best clips on TH-cam I ever saw.
Very creative work mate! Love it!
Thats insane, crazy how you made everything work!
This is the level I am aiming for. I hope one day I can be as qualified as you.
REALLY nice.
Also great to see someone do an incut pass when cutting steel.
Pretty frigin incredible project. Too awesome.
That is absolutely amazing project!!!
This is awesome man !! Great job on the project 👍
Great watch, thanks
This is such a cool project

Isn't that an old Daytona USA arcade cabinet? I used to LOVE that game when i was a kid. I spent all kinds of my dads cash to play it.
Find a local shot blaster and become friends ;) Cool project
that came out better then i was going to do to it glad u got it looks amazing glad i got to see it finished didnt know it was that rough tho

Awesome 🔥🤙🏾
Cool project. Possible future upgrade - delete the monitor and add a VR headset. Thanks for the videos. Stay safe out there.
The monitor is for the kids...I'll be getting a headset for me ; )
@@diyfiberlaser Yeah, after typing I realised the monitor would be good for any audience watching your awesome driving skills 🙂
Cool.
The fact he can do all the super complicated stuff but not weld is quite funny...
Is there a specific reason you use a hacksaw to cut your stock instead of a bandsaw?
Yes....I don't have one yet....it is on my tool wishlist
Another amazing project Travis!!! 👍Regards Andrzej M
I thought for sure you were gonna bust out the fiber laser for the rust removal and welding.
Oh man, I would have loved to have both of those for this project!!!

“Think I’ll just learn how to weld”
Great project and how long did it take you for the whole project?
2.5 months
cool projects, but that still leaves me wondering why a 3d printer would ned 4 or 5 heater cartiges, and two steppers on the same leadscrew 😮
Maybe it's not a 3D printer? 😉
Are you still using the ultra pure nitrogen? If so, has it lasted you a while?
It's still the same tank, but I almost never use it...only for special occasions : )
all that work and the monitor flaps like a leaf in the wind :'(
Really really sad to see solid cat5 wire used for anything but Ethernet. Your time is valuable. 🤮
