Pretty sure the mystery switch is not for automatic computer cleaning to get rid of the dust

Is there no flex in base mount? What is the thickness of the material of those side mounts?One part I'm very proud of are the wheelbase side-mounts.
It's 5 mm stainless steel. Theres zero flex in those mounts.Is there no flex in base mount? What is the thickness of the material of those side mounts?
Awesome and very neat rig!It's 5 mm stainless steel. Theres zero flex in those mounts.![]()
Thanks Tao!Awesome and very neat rig!
With 5 mm thick stainless steel damn right it's not gonna flexAs a general question, I wonder : I see many of you use aluminium bosch profiles in your rigs but from work experience I know these tend to get much more expensive than L profiles or tubes. Actually we try to avoid using them when designing something that doesn't require much modularity or if building time or delay isn't pushing you. Without welding you can build pretty much anything with tubes and brackets, but you'll have to drill some holes and bolt it together. So is it just purely for practicality or maybe is it clever/easier to reuse them when doing a rig modification?

Extinguisher mode? It very much looks like one, I like the idea of seeing bubbles coming out that PC...It's far more entertaining watching the speculation unfold
It's a toggle switch on the power lines of 2 different SSDs, which have their own Windows install for different purposes. 1 for racing (minimal apps, drivers, things in the background; C drive only etc.); and the other for work & general use. Yes changing the boot order in the bios or using a bootloader works too, but where's the fun in that? Physical switches ftw! I also love how goofy it looks

If I flip it during a race, I'm going to have a bad time. Could call it the going nuclear rage quit switch I guess.
As you say that I've almost fully dismounted my rig to get new stuff inA rig is never finished, I’m always on the lookout for the next upgrade![]()
The room looks so awesome... I want aswell...
Well on one hand yes, on the other hand my gf kicked me out of our workroom and now I gotta 'live' down here together with 389 spidersThe room looks so awesome... I want aswell...![]()
430 spider would be better :/
you forgot an r there xDWhy not have 488 Giant Thicc Beasts
Well at least you had somewhere to go . I only have the shared workroom so no place for a permanent rig.... will have to stick with my wheel stand pro and foldable camping chairWell on one hand yes, on the other hand my gf kicked me out of our workroom and now I gotta 'live' down here together with 389 spiders![]()
You have to slowly implement that idea. Cautiously plant the seed in her mind. Then she won't be as shocked as when big packages with metal stuff arrive out of nowhere. Was the same for me. My man cave is her home-office, and as it always was THE messy room which exists in every household, we came down to a deal. Everything got re-arranged, new desk for her, a nice paint on the wall, more storage room for her stuff, my desk got thrown out and now I have my "corner" with permanent rig, wall mounted monitor etc., and a little space for further additions to the rig. Win-win. And she even said that it doesn't look as bad as she thought it would.Well at least you had somewhere to go .

Plus... if I would build a permanent rig like yours, she would probably kick me out of the house![]()
That's in fact exactly the way I got the wheel stand inYou have to slowly implement that idea. Cautiously plant the seed in her mind.
