Hey guys. I only seem to really enjoy Driving Games so I'm going to make a Driving Game Desk that should also work good for any Gaming.

It's still in the development stage and 'll probably make just the desk part first but eventually I want to make a completely adjustable chair system that is somehwat unconventional and made primarily from pipe.

Have a look.

Your feedback would be great

When I'm driving I hardly use it...

But have a look at a version with it on a flip out tray (or something lol)

Where does the desktop tower go? It would be nice if it was designed as a center console and on the power button you labeled it as "Start" like on those beemers or Lexuses.

I agree.

But just widen the desktop and set the keyboard to the left of the steering wheel ...

Otherwise, CD ... great looking concept ...

One side will need to be open to get you legs in unless the chair slides, Or you have the top on a single ceteral pillar so your legs are either side of it.

Looks good, you should try and pick up a cheat racing seat and maybe even a 5-point harness for added effect

Thanks for the input guys. Until I mock it up it will be hard for me to know if getting in and out will be too difficult. My impression is that it would be easier than getting into a Formula car...just sit in the seat and swing your legs over the low sides.

The PC will go under the operator's knees and rest on the tubes. However I could put a start button on the desk.
