USB Sequential shifter / Handbrake

thingiverse

A shifter with a switch on the side so you can use it as a handbrake. The shaft mounts to a potentiometer on one side so you get accurate values. Keep in mind the travel can be a bit short for the handbrake, but I am using this mainly for the seq shifter and I figured it's better than using a plain old button. Keep that in mind if you're using this for a handbrake. But you can remix it and just remove the mounts for the switches to give it a lot more travel space. If you need some changes and don't know how, just ask in the comments. I'll gladly help :) I made space for an arduino in the base, but I ended up hot gluing it to the bottom of the shaft so it follows the movement. It seemed to work better. Components needed: 2x - Micro switch 1x - Potentiometer 1x - Arduino pro micro 1x - USB cable 2x - Pull springs 4x - M4x25 mounting screws for the sides 4x - M4x6 mounting screws for the base 4x - M4x6 for the springs 4x - M2x10-15 for the switches 4x - M4 for mounting the base to whatever surface you want. Another base option that can mount to RAM mounts will come soon. Wiring -- Code is in files, see Shifter_HB.ino
