he is a sweetheart, and very supportive of my gaming and build habits. the simulator is totally up his tree. im sure if he realized they existed i would have a "hunny-do" list. i cant wait to see more progress on your build though. i had no idea people could make something that complex on their own.

the sim area is starting to feel like get smart [you have to pass thru 3 airlocks to get to the simpit , as seen in this pic , think im over doin it lol ..

just mounted the ER-PPC just to get it off the floor

its comming along ....
 
Very impressive. What you have looks great!
As for over doin it. Maybe. It deppends on what you are going to put inbetween the 3 airlocks. I mean if it is going to be quite a few consoles, screens and such (they don't need to work btw. Even better if they did though) then it should look great. If it is just going to be walkways then yeah you're over doin it. If the first air lock leads to a walkway, then next to some sort of console room and then next to the simpit, then I think that would look pretty cool.
But many kudos are deserved for tackling something that many people would never even think to try. Good on you! Hope you finish it the way you want.
Ps: It would be even cooler if it moved :p

I love sci-fi props. There great! (Dam. I sound like tony the tiger). Im not that big a fan of stargate but I like startrek. Are you going to have startrek consoles in area 1? Cause that would be cool! Also Starwars , nasa , terminator and halo are some of my favourite things :D
When you say closets, do you mean a place to store things in? What would you store in a mech leg?
Nice rack :lol:. (Sorry!) Will you be having airsoft guns in it? Btw what area is it in?
Ps: In the first pic, stuck underneath the bottom of the simpit. Is that a fire extinguisher I see? If it is, good to see you are taking precautions to prevent a fire from burning it down.
