Logitech GT Driving Force remix

The original design had its merits, but I soon found it wanting for long-term use when one of the hinge points gave way under stress. Undeterred, I opted to start anew from scratch, drawing on the original dimensions as a foundation. This time around, I've crafted the collar with a thickness of 20mm and incorporated a 4mm clearance at the rear of the wheel - a deliberate design choice that has paid dividends in terms of structural integrity. This revamped design necessitates the use of M3 bolts extending to 40mm, paired with self-locking nuts and washers. This setup allows for plenty of room for tightening without risk of slippage, lending an air of robustness to the entire assembly. While I've opted to retain the original paddles, their proven track record has earned them a place in this revised design. It's worth noting that I've also taken steps to augment the overall performance of this iteration - specifically, the incorporation of round rubber pads measuring 4mm in thickness on the paddle notch facing the wheel buttons. These added elements serve not only to maintain consistent contact between the paddles and wheels but also to mute the sound generated by their interaction.
