    Welcome @Toddbee.

    Doing some research before getting in too deep is time well spent.

    Please bounce your plans and shopping list off members before jumping too far down what can be an expensive rabbit hole, if you get it wrong.

    Use the Search on the Recent page to find recent Stewart projects, as they have refined over time.

    You will also find plenty of helpful information in the FAQs: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/

    If something sounds odd then look it up in the glossary: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/glossary-of-acronyms-and-names.66/

    When you are ready please start your own thread here and detail your project, so members can give support and advice where possible: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/forums/diy-motion-simulator-projects.22/

    Good luck with your project.

    Hello, I just found this forum watching YouTube videos on 2 DOF motion platforms. I'm 55 years old and I'm from the USA. I've read the forum rules and will do my best to abide by them.

    Hello everyone,
    I live in France, I’m not that young anymore (61 years old), and I’m planning to build myself a simulator with 3 or 4 motors. With a bit of sweat, some welding, and some computing, that’s why I joined this forum. For now, I’m reading, reading, and checking out the different projects.

    Bonjour à l'ensemble de la communauté,

    Je vie en France je ne suis plus tout jeune (61 ans) et j'ai pour projet de me construire un simulateur avec 3 ou 4 moteurs, avec un petit peu de sueur, de soudure, de l'informatique et c'est pour cela que je me suis inscrit sur ce forum. Pour le moment, je lis, lis et je regarde les projets.
