It looks pretty good but I just started the drafting the HD plans last night ;D.  I should be done with them soon.  I really can't see a big problem in someone retrofitting a Pepboys type of car seat to the cab.  Now if I could find a real Hard drivin cab somewhere on Long Island NY I would take the measurments of it.  If any Long Islanders know of one please let me know, I'm basing the size of this to be at least 6' tall.

hi drewkaree

thx for the link.... yes, I have seen that one before... and it had inspired me a lot... (in cheapy words... I'm sort of copying his ideas shamelessly.... but I never said the ideas are mine !!...  ;) ;) )

his is more like a desk, but I want mine a little more like a cab.... but yes, that's kinda what I'm thinking.... (with the front part will be constructed more like a cab than a desk...)

well... but for now... this is only on the drawing board for me... I'll need to first finish my stand up cab  computer desk first.... heee hee...)

 ;) ;D

eh, i would just go out and buy an empty driving cab at an auction or something.  i would think that without plans from somebody else, it would be harder to make sure all the dimensions and comfort level are right.  i mean, you gotta factor in the way it will feel as far as you sitting in the cab, and you dont want to make the whole thing and be sitting in and all of a sudden, its too small or something.  you could just get an already made one, and gut it.  i think that would work just as well.
