How do you the tv? Do you use track ir or anything on it? I found a pretty cheap 50" tv that will do 1440p at 120hz or 4K at 60hz. Unsure how it will go with track ir.

Thanks @RustBelt, there is a limit to funds. So no wrap around screens just yet. The man cave needs a new tv, so I am going to trial a 50", and if it's works well enough then I will get two more.. if not I have a new tv ... then I will just get some gaming monitors. But first the tomcat needs to be cut out by the local cnc shop.

Even though my tomcat is still awaiting being turned into a IKEA flat pack, I am already thinking about the screens I will use as the main displays. I know that a lot of people are going the VR route, but I already have VR and due to my tropical climate and sinus issues it’s not the best the solution. I am keen to hear what others are going to use as their main display?

Afternoon All. Anybody converted the svg CNC files to dxf or dwg? I somewhere got a copy ages ago of old files, but looking to convert AusMumbles svg files. Not having much luck at the moment.

@BULLITT83 Silly question, but in your photos you have a plan to mark out the spacing of the ribs.. Where did you find that, or did you create that yourself?

@AusMumbles very good question. Right now I am working with a mate to do finalise the conversion and compiling. I converted the svg files to dxf and he is going to run them through 'çypcut' software to tidy up files. But he isn't local, so I will take those files to another mate with a CNC machine. I am a complete novice regarding CNC, so anything could happen. Thanks

Thanks Bullitt83, I am going to try and get it cut via CNC but unsure what I need to do to the files to make that happen. Wish me luck.

Hey mate, did you use a CNC for the cutting? Or all manual?

Okay tag me in (be gentle I'm new), been watching for a while now and I am seriously jumping on the tomcat train...err jet.. Plan is to follow Mumbles lead and build a VR pit around my Next level racing flight seat. Christmas may get in the way of that planning, but it has begun..
