GameStation 3000

Hey everyone!
This is my rig of epicosity (at least i think so) from start to finish took about a month. I finished this project on Thursday (13/09/2012)
I work at a metal Scrapyard. I asked my Boss if I could use his shop and his welder. He said yes and i really appreciate his help, as well as my supervisor and friend who helped me design and fabricate it. It would not have been possible if not for them which is why my work hat is in the pictures. This was my first shot at welding and i thoroughly enjoyed the learning experience!

Before Paint








Mom gets the first test drive JK




After setup! The battery in the bottom left corner is for powering the power adjustable seat


Aluminum Checker-Plate


Reverse mounted pedals


The colour of the Corvette on the TV was the orange that i was going for with the paint


Handbrake from Subaru Outback... i think... Im having troubles getting it to work


Having 2 seats allows for both expansion and for having a buddy over. the TV is on an adjustable wall mount that will center in between the two seats.


Please tell me what you think!
(this is my first real post)

Veery cool! You've done a fantastic job and it looks about as rigid as they come, well done 👍

Cool, how about getting another wheel/pedal and TV, then you could have side by side racing. Well done indeed.

Well like I said expansion was definitely in mind which is why there is 2 plates for the pedals, unfortunately as i am a Student cash is a tight so an extra TV, console and wheel will have to wait lol. I'm also thinking that the shifter mount for when that time comes will be on the left of the wheel so that the option to drive right hand is there

If anybody is interested, I am willing to share my design i dont have access to it right now but i can upload it later today

Ok this setup looks extra cool. Don't see many with two seats. Awesome.
