I'm thinking about getting one..  anyone have one for sale, or have any
suggestions on a decent setup that won't break the bank?

Thanks,

Yep, that sort of thing..  but that one is near nine-hundred bucks.  I was
hoping to stay closer to around three hundred, if that's possible.  I might
try to build my own, I've been googling the heck out of the web for
different ideas and I've come up with several good ones.  I am kind of lazy
though, and I think someone with a little more skill could do a better job
than I could anyway.

Thanks for the link,
PeptoJoe

Cliff,

You still got that thing in the ba***t? Do you still use your
computer case as a Refrigerator?

Has anyone tried these?

I'm considering getting one and they're around the US$300 mark.

List for around $299US I think so seem to be one of the cheaper ones around.

So 40K UKP would be a bit OTT? (around 80K USD).

Possibly too far the other way?

around.

Nice idea but it looks very flimsy - doesn't the frame flex about a bit...

Hyper stim now have a model for third party wheels

So you can get the kit and add a logitech momo to it.
Still a bit pricey though

LOL!  I need a double-wide :)

Looks like they are simulating the toothpick-body-build requirement as well
