Thank you for your wonderful comment.
Since I am retired now, I have plenty of time to create whatever I want.
I have enjoyed making things since I was a child, and even as an adult, I have continued to enjoy building electronic and computer-related devices as a hobby.
About 40 years ago, I discovered flight simulators (flight sims). At that time, devices for flight sims were not commercially available in Japan, and there was no internet or information, which led me to start building my own control devices. That was the beginning.
Now, I truly enjoy the hobby of making my own flight sim-related devices. I do all the construction myself, and since I often use spare parts from old PC component upgrades, it surprisingly doesn’t cost much money.

I absolutely love your work. Wish I had your talent and patience!
Whenever you post a new video I’m always watching it and thinking to myself, one day when I retire, I’ll hopefully have the time and money to be able to do something like you do.
These days it’s so easy with the internet and A.I to learn something new. Just don’t have the time at the moment. But in the future who knows. Technology along with A.I is growing at such a fast rate these days, so in 10 or 15 years who knows what we might be able to accomplish.
One day I will build my own VR cockpit as others have done on this forum. But for now I’ll just keep watching the videos you post and keep dreaming of the possibilities.
Thanks for all your posts and keep them coming!
Edit: I keep forgetting that you are on YouTube and I’m subscribed to your channel but I never turned on Notifications, which I have done now

Thank you for your kind comment.
I am truly astonished by the recent evolution of AI and technology, and as someone from the analog generation, I find it quite challenging to keep up.
For a generation with slightly older ways of thinking, like myself, we enjoy the process of manual creation, from using a hacksaw to cut materials and filing to shape them, to machine processing with tools like drill presses and lathes.
In today’s world, it seems that amazing devices for flight simulators can be made using modern tools like 3D printers and NC lathes. Honestly, my personal feeling is that this sometimes feels like it takes away the joy of making itself. I intend to continue creating handmade devices, utilizing the remaining time I have in my life effectively.
Also, thank you for watching my YouTube channel. I occasionally upload things I’ve made on a whim, so please feel free to take a look when you have some time.

I totally agree with everything you say.
I’m not a young man anymore although I still feel young and sometimes feel that the world is moving far too quickly for me to keep up but I do try.
I already have
and I’m still amazed at your talent. I was particularly impressed with your video of flying in Tokyo on your Laptop setup. I left a comment on it
