thingiverse

A Different Take on Magnetic Shifters for Fanatec F1 Style Wheels. This unique design utilizes 8x3mm magnets, a total of four in number. It cleverly positions the magnets to avoid obstructing your fingers while shifting gears, allowing seamless access to the quick release hub. The parts are carefully designed with symmetry in mind, requiring only two prints of each type to complete. The dynamic component, a flat plate, can be easily reversed for stronger or weaker magnetic action by adjusting the distance between the magnets. It's essential to check the polarity before securing the magnets into place. To enhance stability and prevent damage, each magnet is reinforced with a .2mm thick surface under it. This design incorporates M3x8mm screws in quantities of four and M3x12mm screws in equal quantities for added support and structural integrity. The provided files allow users to modify and remix the design as needed, catering to various size and geometric requirements. It's essential to properly attribute the original creator when making any changes or adaptations.
