    Hi All

    Probably in the wrong section so please move if it is.

    I've ordered a cnc plasma table(not personally but for my company) capable of cutting 40mm mild steel plate so it's not to bad. It should arrive and be setup by the end of January which is perfect timing for me as i'm going to start my 2nd project. I can cut all the Aluminium floor plates and put holes in accurately so all should be perfect and pretty straight forward.
    I wouldn't mind building a decent set of pedals, so have any of you, got or seen any plans for some.

    Also I'm looking out for sim bits i can make so if any of you UK based people have anything you need ill try and make them for you at cost of material plus postage if i can. I'm more than happy to help the community

    cheers

    Jay

    @crammy do you play Iracing? Beano has a write up, there in the forums under hardware or DIY controllers can't remember which. He uses Tilton or something similar. Either way he shows his pedal project. Also Jason Jodarski built a few sets and can also help.

    Have you contacted Oculus Support and what are your system specs, plus what USB ports are you using?

    Moved for you. We do not really have a cnc section, this is as close as we get but perhaps we should edit the section title?
