Steam Controller Steering Wheel Style Mount

thingiverse

I wanted a steering wheel mount for my Steam Controller that would be quick and easy to set up without requiring additional hardware, so I hacked together two existing projects - a clamp and a phone mount. I wasn't planning on sharing this project, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well it works and how good it feels as a control scheme. The only extra piece of hardware needed is a rubber band that runs through the shaft of the mount onto the hook on the clamp. This adds some tension and a small amount of centering force. Gravity also helps with centering, which makes the setup even more stable. Unfortunately, the design of the mount was awkward to print, resulting in a lot of support material. I printed it in a shaft-upwards configuration, but be sure to remove all the support material from the mount because if it's too tight, it will prevent the grip switches from working properly.
