Hello all!

I'm taking a break from working on the Cessna to build something that I can use on the dining room table when I need a quick fix!

I've set myself a little challenge for a bit of fun and to keep me amused whilst the snow continues to fall (that and the fact the other half is going out tonight so I can make a bit of mess!)

I'm going to build a desktop simulator out of parts I have lying around. The goal is to still use my main visuals machine for their intended purpose but to rip apart an old laptop and monitor and turn them into a kind of miniature sim!

I started it at 2pm, here goes!

2pm: Monitor pulled apart, Windows 7 installed on Laptop.
