Show Us Your Setup

a bit OT - but loved the sig - best Tool track ever
The whole album is stunning. It's taken about 10 years but TOOL have overtaken Black Sabbath as my favourite band.
New album might be coming out this year too.

My biggest problem with this setup at the moment is that i can't get the goddam X52 to stick to my desk!

Blutack.
Lots of Blutack.
:D
 
My phone camera sucks, despite it supposedly being a "good" one, i can never get it to focus properly.

Anywhere, here ya go.

And yes, my X65f is, in fact, held down with my belt. Swag.
 
They're basically a keyboard. The toggle switches make home made ones difficult though, but am currently making one using an Arduino (actually Arduino-like device called a Teensy++ 2.0) that'll act as a pulse monitor and translate it to a keystroke (will work with potentiometers and momentary switches too.)

arh intresting,,, is it just the board i need ,, any code need i dont think im going to be that could with,,, was'nt there a thread of someone doing one of these ,, sorry to hijack thread
 
looks like a GAU-8/A casing on the left..

On the shelf on the top right?
Maybe, though I reckon it's a little small for Gau, perhaps 20mm?

I meant the three mahoosive tubes on the left of the pic.


**edit**
Shell comparison pics:
20mm and .50BMG:

ahh didn't see those, thought they were wrapped up posters or somthing

i have a couple of GAU-8/A DU casings somewhere, a hog driver sent me them back in 2006 :D

its hard to gauge without knowing the other shells - they could be 30+40mm from other cannons
Distinct lack of manly, hairy chested 7.62 from THAT rifle.
rifle? its a gatling gun ;)
 
The buttkicker works well with ED. The only "bug" I've encountered is when passing through a station's shields. The buttkicker freaks out and nearly sterilized me so much my balls shook.

Your earlier pic actually inspired me to go out and buy an L-shaped desk. I picked up a 2nd hand one for cheap and even the girlfriend approves because it looks decent and I can stash various odds and ends in the drawers.
 
First off, the 'cockpit' view:

Pretty shot of my desktop:

Another shot of the monitors:

I've added a wireless numeric keypad (through judicious use of industrial sticky-back velcro) to my x45 throttle. I now have sufficient keys that I don't ever need to lean forward to the keyboard :)

VESA bracket mount for my x45 stick. With the shape of the arm of my chair, these were an utter pain to get mounted in exactly the right position.

A shot showing the colour difference between my cheap BenQ left and right monitors and centre Dell S2240L IPS. Don't really notice it in use so much, but can certainly see it here. Also spot my desk helpers :D

Oh, and nearly forgot, my lord and master:

Obligatory night time shot:

Wallpaper is the Orion Nebula, and I'm using the Rainmeter program and Speedfan with a plugin to show system stats, temperatures, time and weather.

Happy to inspire mate :D
 
Theyre 5inch shells from the main gun of a USS Destroyer. :D

The one's on the right, the green ones are 25mm rounds, the smaller are 20mm for a CWIS.
Always did like the Cwiz. right up until the time one tracked a malfunctioning drone and shot the ass end off one of our CH-46 Helicopters.
