All a man needs is a computer, a chair with a poophole, and a fridge next to him, that's the life right there.

Pretty much finished with the piping now, next step is fastening all the joints with screws, painting the rig, and adding paneling:

Getting the joints fastened together with heavy duty self tapping screws, they end up looking kinda like bolts once in, gives it an industrial look I think.

Painting is done, gotta clean up the rails a bit and I can get started on the platforms and side panels:

Great thing, dude. Are the sidepanels moveable, because currently questioning myself how to entry that rig, without jumping within from the side?
