DIY LMP2 syle steering wheel build (complete)

[BloodySalmonMan]

Hi all. I've been working on a DIY steering wheel project for some months and now it's done so want to share my work. The wheel I made is inspired by Cosworth CCW MK2 which is mainly used in many LMP2 cars. I reckon all of you want to see the final product so here it is!
Cost report / Parts list can be found here
Download magnetic paddle shifter 3D files (.stl) here
All the links are for Japanese pages but most of them can be found in any countries.
The whole build only cost approximetely $300.
Thinking about selling data of the wheel for 3D print and laser cut (EDIT* The model was updated with better paddle shifter and side covers to hide all the mess inside. The price is now 30Euro.) Incase you’re interested, please contact me for further info (Dimentions need to be adjusted depending on buttons, encoders, display, Quick release you desire to use)
If you want a complete wheel, please contact me too.

NOTE: After building quite a few steering wheels, I though I should redesign this wheel fundamentally. The data and the complete wheel will be available soon. Thanks for your patience.

Haha no it's okay i can read a message in English I'm not so bad. But Understand that your products are slightly out of my budget (300€) but I go look every time your product to better understand how I should organize myself. But i'am on G29 logitech product is not like thrustmaster mechanics. I going to use the ams tutorial is more for beginners like me. I know I don't keep de easier choose but I crazy about diy and challenge ^^ thanks for your help. And no 19 years old is not old I'm just little bit younger than you...
(this message was write with out Google translate

Yeah AMStudio's tutorials are the best you could find I reckon. From my experience, $300 for a DIY wheel is enough. You should be able to build a decent one for sure!
Your English is very good mate

that is impressive! and the pedals look good too... how far along are you with those?

There you go

DIY 3-Pedal set

I've made a DIY pedal set to replace T3PA pedals from Thrustmaster. The aim here is to achieve a better feeling (heavier pedals overall) while keeping the cost as low as possible. I've used a technical info from Heusinkveld pedals as a reference. CAD files can be downloaded HERE

I don't remember where I found those files, but I saved them at the time. Maybe these will be helpful for a second build... :$

Your work is impressive, that's a fact.

Do you still have those files? I'm also working on a project of steering wheels and specifically the Cosworth is the first one.

@BloodySalmonMan have you finalised the steering wheel? I am looking for a lmp1 / f1 style wheel to mount to the simagic wheelbase

That's insane. I want to buy a complete one of these for a small MIGE. Im living in Fukuoka.

hey, do you still live in Fukuoka? Do you know if a local discord for sim racers in Japan?
