    Hi,

    I am starting looking at solutions for building my own sim rig.
    I sure some of you have good address of low cost mechanical parts manufacturer (China, Taiwan,...) able to propose:
    • ball srews,
    • brackets,
    • linear shaft,
    • CNC capabilities for custom drawings,
    • etc...
    Could you share with me your experiences, recommendations and good addresses?

    Many thanks for your help,

    What sort of rig do you want to build?

    Doing some research before getting in too deep is time well spent.

    Bounce your plans and shopping list off members before jumping too far down what can be an expensive rabbit hole, if you get it wrong.

    Use the Search on the Recent page to find similar projects as to what you have in mind.

    You will also find plenty of helpful information in the FAQs: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    The FAQs have a Design section as well as many others: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/design-considerations-resources.24/category
