So, a friend of mine bought some cool stuff to play those Space simulators like Elite Dangerous and so on... #Lowbudget
Soon he decided that he needed to customize his chair in order to become a real commander. So after 30 mins of some screwing he came up with this! It gets the job done.
first attemp...
....pretty comfortable so far. But where is the mouse and keyboard?
Alright, here we go!
Looks nice doesn't it? - but doesnt work well, he ´s pretty tal .
Some adjustments... for that big handed guy
Sound sound sound and some stabilizations
This is real DIY style :D
And there we go just some hours later and maybe 20 bucks . First prototype - Done. Got a usb hub , his mic build in, a bunch of sockets, also his mouse and keyboard right there and lots of neat stuff. But...
....the cup/ashtray holder cant be missing right?
Now he decided that what he has done so far wasn´t enogh in order to get the real felling of beeing a commander . So he needs a HUD , sure... what else. Start of Prototype 2 #DIY
On a podium... #Likeaboss O.o
This shit is angled so that his pedals are right in that perfect position without being able to slip away.#DIY
#DIY
This is it so far. But i am going to add more stuff in the next hours ´cause OFCOURSE... - he hasnt finished yet ;) (WORK IN PROGRESS)
It´s my first post hope you guys like it .
EDIT: Alright here we go 2nd update : http://imgur.com/a/EzAdK

That's a neat masturbator station! Also, that mic seem a bit low quality?

What game do you play ?
Shoot117
I believe on the screen was Arma 3 for reference, setups like that aren't entirely uncommon for that game.
maboes
Next get a HMD.

That small gap between the chair and the table is going to hurt some fingers in the future if you don't cut it wider.

If it is stupid and it works, it is not stupid. Looks awesome and FUN!

Studies show that having sex is a great outlet for brainstorming. No wonder he was able to pull this off after only a 30 minute session
BarryTheWhite
30 minutes of screwing, eh OP? I like ths way you and your 'friend' get stuff done.
Zap117
When you nut and scream eureka!
pelledad
Well for the first attempt now we got already like 16 hours of work in it.
AlexTG
What kinda games do you play? Clearly not FPS with that mouse setup, lol
ShiaIabeouf
I guess your not playing fps?
GreenFox
I'm guessing he's playing Elite Dangerous. (Players are called "CMDR"s in E:D)
BaconOnARock
Yeah but it seems OP has no real ability for FPS, so that setup is pretty much completely devoted to flight/space sims. Unless he wants to>

Wait shit I have CSGO and a joystick... I need to try this.
Freedomfairy
A full on commander chair is damn sweet. I would advise to just get a headset with mic built in rather than that swing out mic.
Freedomfairy
Also you should throw in the tri monitor setup for ultra wide gaming. Would be awesome.
benfinklea
I would spend the rest of my life tweaking it more than I actually play the game.
