    @noorbeast , @Avenger76 , @Nick Moxley Moxley and many others on this forum !

    Due to an unfortunate incident most the the construction pictures have been lost, but I have documented the progress since painting of the components has been completed and will continue to update as assembly is completed and testing starts.

    My goal was a motion platform that was rigid, I did not want any flex of pedals or controls when in use. It is based on the Motion Dynamicks 50:1 drives, JRK controllers and Dell 2950 750W power supplies. Frame is mainly 30mm sq tube with a pair of Toyota Hilux tail shaft front yokes for the universal joint. An Oculus Rift will be used with initial setup done for LFS, Assetto Corsa and Project Cars 2. Once successfully tuned I will then look at P3D tuning.

    Next need some floor plate under the seat.

    Final assembly of the PSU and JRK case thanks to inspiration by @scalhoun and the Cooler Master Elite case mod. I included an aux PC PSU for cooling fans, powering the three 60amp relays and also the emergency switch LED. Also included a Thermaltake fan/temp controller hooked up to the JRKs.

    Successfully powered up and completed the basic configuration of the JRKs via the Windows JRK config utility.
    Next, need to tidy up the wiring and on to setup and testing in Sim Tools.
