Hi there! I am new, this is my first lifesize cockpit and hardware adventure!

So as the expenses but also thrills of having realistic hardware to interact with your simulator daunted on me, I was afraid it was a far fetched dream, but as I realized patience could very well mean a steady but gradual approach that would one day become one giant 737NG/MAX flightdeck...Now as I am easily grown tired of flying the same hunk of metal, I already decided that I would use my flightdeck and most of its hardware for other aircraft as well so I decided that I would try and make it switchable when it comes to the generic and crucial parts.So I intend to assemble most parts 737NG/MAX, and some VIP stuff like throttle and MCP/CDU specific or unique or different to those found in the A320 and 777/747/787...AS this might sound weird,l actually its not.The Boeing family share the same logic, meaning a 777 overhead panel could be used for the 787 as well as the throttle, where as the 747 might need its very own it could use the 747 MCP I already have as well as having its own overhead and either share the 777 throttle quadrant or have its own dedicated one, time will tell, but I do think many parts can be shared and enjoyed when switching out some of the other parts.I hope I made sense as it is so far still a plan inside my head with only the 737 MCP, CDU and pedestal(still constructing that one) being finished, this is very much a constant work in progress, although I do have the Throttle master hardware in stock waiting for the last bit to be released, I have already eyed out my 777/787 TQ and fallen in love with a 747 TQ...Now the hardware industry is still very much a jungle, I find some producers lack of documentation and product visual previews, a major hurdle I have begun to zoom in on my preferred, realistic and ideal producers... But I have still a lot of uncertainty about what to choose.Likewise the total do it yourself from the ground up is way over my league and time I have to throw at this build up phase...I hope to share, get inspired, help and be helped in here, see you in here

Thank you! My pedestal is almost done, this work takes a long time to finish!
