Arcade Spinner Steering Wheel Attachement

prusaprinters

<p>I have been spending a cold winter building an arcade unit. No style, lots of substance. Picked up a Spintrak arcade spinner for Arkanoid, Warlords, etc but did not want to drop the 70 USD for a stearing wheel accessory. Prints in three pieces and uses nine 4-40 X 1/2 sheet metal screws and nuts to hold it all together.</p> <p>The three screws that hold the nut to the bottom are too long, so you can get away with shorter screws there.</p> <p>Mine friction fit onto the dial but I can see that failing after a while so I intend to get a pipe quick clamp to fasten the nut to the spinner dial. You could probably scale the print down a point to get a better friction fit.</p> <p>Added two different top sections. One with Mame Retro embossed in a cool art deco font and another blank with a domed centre.</p> <p>I mounted the whole thing to a poorly conceived box which works ok for just the spinner but it needs to get bolted to something to use the steering wheel. I have included the STL for size reference only. I wouldn't recommend printing it.</p> <p>Edit:<br/> Added a clamp to tighten the nut onto the spinner. You also need 6-32 X 1/2" sheet metal screw and nut and a couple of #6 washers. A wingnut would probably be a better choice but I don't have any of those in the right size.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: Games Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong> Prusa</p> <p><strong>Printer:</strong> <a href="http://amzn.to/2rqZ6Uo">i3 MK3</a></p> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Supports:</strong> Yes</p> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong> .2</p> <p><strong>Infill:</strong> 15 to 20 %</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Filamentum Flex Filaments.ca PLA for the wheel.
