If by any chance a file or files are not present in the zip file, I apologise in advance. They are present here on the server but IMO the file upload/update system here sucks balls and has deemed them not worthy to be included in the zip. Please check Thingiverse, Printables, Makeronline or Makerworld for the same upload. Update 21/11/24: Added one of my arcade spinner wheels with three versions, a wiimote conversion and (by request) two non-functioning versions just for fun. Update 08/11/24: Added two extra taller clamps so you can attach to a coffee table and still have the steering wheel at a reasonable height. ClampExt200 requires a 200mm bed and ClampExt250 requires a 250mm bed (at least in one direction). Update 06/11/24: Replaced the Joint.stl with a new version to improve print angle.Please note, the top of the circle bridges (on the Clamp.stl where the bolts go through) can produce some loose threads, but it doesn't effect operation. I didn't use any supports, I'll leave it up to you. Also I recommend printing the JBolt.stl upright with a brim for support. --- The Wiimote is a motion controller, a cool remote you can move around to simulate a golf club, a tennis racket, a sword or even as a device for steering things.  I realise you can pick up an official Mariokart wheel quite cheaply (Wheel_Handheld.stl is the same idea) but I never really liked it because it wasn't anchored down.I have made a version that is. Fix the Clamp to a table (between 8 and 52mm thickness) using the BigBolt, attach the Joint with the JBolt (0, 22.5 or 45 deg. angle), pop in some 5mm ball bearings if you got 'em, push on the Wheel (or ABars) to the Joint and enjoy one-handed steering in whatever driving game you prefer. I included some extra parts to help with reaching the Wiimotes back trigger.Trigger1 & Button3 are more suited to the steering Wheel.Trigger2 & Button1 are more suited to the ABars & SBars.Button2 & 3 are there to be pushed down with your finger, Button1 is meant to pivot when you nudge it with your knuckle. This was another fun thing to design, if you have a specific steering wheel shape you would like to see then just comment or send me a message. May your drifts be long and glorious! --PATREON & PATREON SHOP.--https://www.patreon.com/3DFreeman Thanks for your continued support!
