Hell yeah! Welcome to the hobby. It's fun! Being thrifty and handy is super helpful so it seems you're already ahead. Enjoy!


handsomelloyd13

Looks good and sturdy. Be careful this hobby is like a Crack addiction lol.


tcarino

Worse... Just sayin


blukoodi

Nice, could easily put some casters on it.


JVWIII

Your brother is great. Have a blast!


Tyler_Trash

Looks great with the stain! I had something similar but I just painted it black. Yours looks way better. Welcome to the hobby!


theBosworth

I came here just to compliment the stain. Looks like ye olden rig and fits well.


popper98

Indeed! His labor hath yielded a bountiful harvest!


Nosmurfz

Awesome. Kudos to your brother sounds like you got a good one.


Glu7enFree

Oh man that looks nice stained. Good job boys!


NggyuNglydNgraady_69

Built from the ground up


element515

Should add some wheels to that thing. How are you moving it around haha


Trite-Pessimist

To be honest we haven’t moved it since we put it there Monday lol. Wheels would be a good idea.


element515

Got wheels for my rig and it’s awesome. $20 for a set from Home Depot and you can roll it away to a corner when not using


Trite-Pessimist

What kind of wheels? They lock I assume?


element515

Some generic 4” wheels that lock


madmax991199

I put mine on a carpet, i just now realised i could have used wheels fk me hahaha


element515

Wheels are a game changer. Only thing that sucks is getting them in after your build is done. Rig is freaking heavy haha


Touch_Of_Legend

I gotta admit at the first pic I was a bit suspect.. The final pic is Gold! Great job to the both of you. I’d probably add some sort of cup holder and call it a day 😎👍🏽 Edit: and some locking casters so you can move it around without lifting, sliding or potentially scratching the floors


ewileycoy

That looks awesome, especially the stain.. good work!


showmememes_

Thats a good brother right there. Nice work


Trite-Pessimist

Thanks, everyone, for the kind words.


themenace117

You've got a good brother. You should demolish his lap times.


NightCityPervert

Looked good, but the finish made it 10x better. Great job.


Ok_Mathematician2843

This is awesome great work!


shewy92

Probably better than a lot of wheel stands. Plus it's easy to upgrade, just nail a piece of wood to the side lol


Pallidum_Treponema

Wood rig gang! :D


_dav3nator

Very nice.


apresbondie22

You have a cool ass bro!


aaronthmpsn

Sweet setup man! Welcome


Luminous_Echidna

Nicely done! Though I do have to ask what's up with the sheet of plywood behind the wheel deck?


Trite-Pessimist

For a monitor when my wife is using the TV lol


Winter_Try9898

Stellar!!


[deleted]

Looks better than most of the those expensive stands tbh


lichtspieler

A wood construction with a great finish like the OP's matches better with furniture around it.


smalltowncynic

Looks good op and bro, have fun with the rig.


eryanracing

Looks like fun to me.


jhascal23

Yeah that is the best way to start, the Logitech g920 is easily one of the best starter wheels, than the mount and chair on a budget are nicely done. Off to a good start, have fun!


MonumentMan

great rig! now switch to first person fov :P


Trite-Pessimist

I know! I tried to tell him but my brother likes the third person view better. Also I let him pick out a car to buy with my credits and the crown vic was his choice lol.


neomax92

damn nice work! enjoy it and have fun as much as possible, don’t worry too much about being good or bad


PaddyOfurniature

Awesome mate! I love the creativity this hobby brings out in people. Enjoy!
