I am currently starting work on my second cabinet as I gave my first cabinet to a family member. What I want to do is foremost have a sit down driving cabinet. I then want the cabinet to convert to a regular cabinet so my friends and I can play. I don't see the need for two cabinets when 1 will do. I have been looking for examples of already built cabinets but have not found one that will do. Does anyone have any pictures or a website with a cabinet like this OR does anyone have any ideas of how I can get this to work? |

I've been looking into a driving cab for a while too but I don't have the room. Driving cabinets usually disconnect b/t the front cabinet and the seat part. Picture a regular upright cab (about 18" shorter) and simply put a seat in front of it. Make it so you can remove the seat and stand in front of it to be able to play it like that - height adjustments may be necessary. Grab a passenger seat from a descent car from the junkyard - along with the adjusting rails - and build around it. |

I also thought about making one but for podracer. Ascar9 is right find a car seat. have the seat part lock onto the cab and have a detachable cp if you want different controls. also are you using a console or pc? i found this pdf on how to make your own pc controls and it showed how to build pedals though only in the basic of ways. |

Cruisin' Usa/World/Exotica Cabs are sweet. If you can find a gutted one. That would be a great Driving Cab! Might be a tad big/wide. |

A fun little challenge :) Heres a proto sketch. Needs a system to assit rise and lower (and lock in place).. unless you just have two people to do it. Not to scale either.. but concept just might work well. |
