I have a dreamcast and the concept4 steering wheel and I have become an absolute addict. My main gripe is that I cannot get into a comfortable/realistic driving position. I would like to attempt to build some sort of racing enclosure with a seat and a dashboard type of shelf to hold the steering wheel. Also a floorboard for the petals. I have access to a wood shop that has a table saw, bandsaw, joiner, planer, router table plus tons of clamps, nailers, etc. Has anyone attempted this? I would love to compare plans, pictures, etc. Anyone know if there are any commercial cabinets available to purchase for home use at a reasonbale price? Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/
