    Hello all from Cambridgeshire, I Have been looking with interest at the wealth of knowledge and skill that IDs on this site and hope to use it to make my man dreams come true. I'm a young 43 and unfortunately medically retired so have time on my hands when feeling upto it, I've kindly been given the nod by the long haired general to use the walk in cuboard under the stairs for my man cave ( the boys have the front room for there gaming platforms and the dogs there kitchen at least I know my place lol. I'm going to try and fulfill a long time aspiration of having my own 3dof motion simulator for mainly DCS and Possibly some VR driving. I have oculus rift and built myself a very caperble gaming pc. I've purchased all the peripherals and boxes to make several button boxes so all in trying to find now is a good plan for making the 3dof seating rig. I look forward to learning from you all oh wise ones.
    Take careand kind rgds
