I have been umming and arring over doing a similar thing.

I have been looking at making it out of steel using the $100 race seats from ebay.

I also have the G25 logitech wheel ready to go aswell.

Looks like a great professional job you are doing there. Now you just need to get it painted up in the 888 Vodafone colours.

My only suggestion is to have another shelf for the LCD to sit over the wheel. Even if you have a wall mounted screen, you should have a spot for the PC LCD for future use.

Is the G25 logitech wheel the one where you can have 900 degrees of wheel rotation or just the normal 180? I've been looking at that wheel for my PC too but they are still around $300 on ebay. I'm waiting for them to come down in price a bit.
