In America we have a steel product called SuperStrut. Its not as pretty as 8020 aluminum but it is similar to work with. Its available at local hardware stores like Lowes or Home Depot. To give you an example of price: A 10' (3 meter) bar of 1-5/8" square tubing is $18.57. I'm building a rig to hold my Fanatec CSL Elite kit/ with H-shifter, Jegs 70200 seat, and 49" 4k tv. My total cost is around $150 for the rig and $45 for the seat (still tweaking the design). That CAD program you are using is real slick. I'm stuck using tinker CAD on a Chromebook. My operation is a truly low budget. For angle adjustment of the wheel, if you decided you want it, you can use the slotted hole brackets on the sides of your wheel mount extensions. Cheers and good luck building.

I just decided to see what it would cost me to build this rig setup, with all the exact pieces and fasteners, and the price difference with freight fees comes so close to the price of simlabs version, that i couldn't justify going the DIY way. And thats the thing, unless you have a 8020 supplier nearby and you can get reasonable freight prices or even pick up its probably cheaper and then i could see it. But i also can appreciate the designwork Simlab has put to the rig in the first place so I prefer to support the company instead, pay a little extra for essentially the same product. This way I support as many jobs as possible in the line of production.

Hi, Trying to save space here to then place a independent 3 monitor stand on the outside of the base. 1. If we place the vertical 40x120 on top of the base 40x80, would the rig be still as STURDY/STABLE as your design? or will be be less stable? Any particular reason you kept the vertical on the outside instead of on top? 2. If we go with the 40x120 on top of 40x80 option would you recommend to reduce height from 790mm to 710mm or to still keep it 790mm? Thanks and waiting for your reply as im ready to place order. Thanks a ton 😊🙏💐

1. You can, but I'd recommend you use joining plates instead of the basic brackets to prevent flex. That's the reason this design has the uprights on the outside, so they can be sufficiently secured with these angle brackets. 2. I would reduce the height.

Hey bud. Sorry to dig up an old vid, just wanted your view on whether this is still a viable option (self build old style SimLab GT1) in comparison to the current SimLab GT1 Evo rig? Price wise theres only about £40 quid in it (inc shipping) between the two. I can see a lot of the extrusion has been removed, with custom aluminium plate used for the pedal area on the newer evo version. I'm currently using a modded up playseat challenge (due to the need for it to be folded away) with a TX wheel, T3PA pedals and TH8A shifter, but I'm going to have the opportunity for a permanent rig in the next few months, so I'd appreciate your views :)

No worries, this is still quite a popular video. The EVO GT1 is very nice at a good price point, it's a really good option. The DIY build in the video will be a bit more sturdy than the EVO GT1, but nothing of concern and would still be stiff enough to carry a direct drive wheel. I do like the look of it. I don't think you can go wrong with the EVO GT1.

As this build (and in most dimensions, the GT1 Evo) is similar to your rig, would you think it would slide under a desk right up to the back of the steering upright extrusions?

You'll need to do your own research on this, and check the parts against local suppliers for the best price and see if it's worth the effort of a DIY vs. a turnkey option. The only thing I'll add, is for the connecting brackets, AliExpress is the cheapest place to find all those pieces. Ultimately, a DIY build will be always cheaper if you don't mind shopping around for the materials.

Yes, you correct, the 790mm is based on the SimLab custom wheel mount. I would say though if you going with a wheel mount design like mine, I would recommend 760mm (minimum) uprights or taller. Having the freedom the adjust wheel deck height is important. In hindsight, 660mm is a bit short.

Depending on the wheelbase, a different solution may need to be worked out to get an angle. What wheelbase are you using or planning to run? For example, In the video I pointed you too, I am able to get some angle using the brackets that connect the wheelbase to the props (standard 40/40 angle brackets, but I could increase the angle with 40/80 brackets). And for example, with a Thrustmaster/Logitech wheelbase, it's designed with an angle already for placement on a flat surface like a desk.

An easy mistake to make. But this isn't based on the Evo design, this is the older SimLab GT1 used to sell just named the GT1, which was more heavy-duty and more expensive.

Before you say about saving money say what parts SIM lab has and why they cost what they do. SIM Lab provides custom made parts and also the time going into developing their rigs. This costs more . I get what you are saying but it isn't really best practice to not give all the details.
@SimRacingCorner
@SimRacingCorner 5 жыл бұрын
Of course, they have custom parts (which have to be substituted here) and you're paying for a service. But, did you realise SIM-LAB actually publish a PDF with all the measurements of the designs on their store page? Anyone can literally do this without my help. And quite honestly the basic frame design is not unique, people have been DIYing 8020 cockpits for years before SIM-LAB we're around.

@@SimRacingCorner the point I'm making is though the saving you make is because you don't have the custom parts . You haven't made it clear about that. If you take into consideration just the 8020 prices it's probably similar. I agree with you bring able to do it cheaper just state all facts though.

@@555gta I'm happy to give viewers the benefit of their own intelligence they're fully aware that propriety custom parts are more expensive and they have been substituted here which makes the build cheaper, as is sourcing the parts yourself. People aren't stupid. And yes, functionally it's as capable as the original. I'll stand by that.
