TGS 2009 video moment of zen: game chair rocks
What's one way to capture the attention of a jaded tech writer who's seen his fair share of game chairs in life? Simple: put glasses filled with rocks on an active model and watch as onlookers get caught in its hypnotic dance. Video after the break.
DIY gaming chair for $80, BYO wheel/pedals
This'll be the second DIY gaming project requiring welding skillz this month! If you shied away from the DIY DDR dancepad due to lack of welding equipment, tool-blog Toolmonger has some suggestions. First, check out their awesome guide to inexpensive welders (they settled on the $380 Hobart's Handler 125 EZ), then head over to their guide on how to build a totally badass gaming chair with $80 worth of materials. That covers the chair, steel, and paint; it's bring-your-own-steering-wheel-pedal-set. The best part? Even though they've spelled it all out for you, you're still not going to do anything about it ... but you could enter their contest to win the thing! Just make a comment somewhere on Toolmonger before July 31, and your lazy ass might win an awesome chair to stick it in.[Via MAKE: Blog]
