About DIY Sim Studio

I founded DIY Sim Studio for two reasons: a passion for sim racing, DIY projects, and mechanical engineering (specifically design). Also, back in 2018, I wanted to build my own pedal set but couldn’t find any quality plans. So, I came up with the idea of ​​designing one myself; after two years of hard work and self-teaching, I was able to share the project with the community. That experience allowed me to go on to create new products, such as gear shifters, handbrakes, steering wheels, cockpits, and more.

And that is how DIY Sim Studio was born!

My mission is simple:

  • Enable the sim racing community to build quality equipment at home.
  • Making sim racing hardware accessible on a tight budget
  • Helping sim racers build with ease, rather than frustration.

Building DIY Project is not always easy.

The hardest parts were:

  • Designing parts strong enough for hard pressure
  • A product whose parts are readily available, inexpensive, and can be purchased worldwide
  • Creating projects that beginners could actually finish
  • Finding reliable electronics solution
  • Writing clear documentation instead of assuming prior knowledge

Every mistake, failed prototype, and redesign helped improve the projects you see today.

My very first mechanical drawing (for the Sim Racing Pedals). It's not a joke.

WHY AM I PROUD OF IT?

I’m proud because DIY Sim Studio is used by real people, all over the world.

Today:

  • More than 2,500 projects have been built
  • Beginners and experienced makers use the same designs
  • Independent creators and sim racing YouTubers have reviewed the projects
  • Many customers build their very first sim racing hardware thanks to these plans

Seeing something I designed become part of someone’s sim rig is the most rewarding part of this journey.
