I like all the steering wheels of the channel, the favorites are the steering wheels with LCD display, post more videos with LCD.

[@KimNabi_cat]

Wow. Just wow. Even the finish on the suede is far better and cleaner than your last wheel! Great job man!

[@amstudioprojects]

Thanks!

"few basics tools" *Take the 3d printer*

[@jamiemcauley1322]

I came to comment section after watching to say the same thing but looks like I have been beat to it

[@Mad1723]

At this point, a good 3D printer is cheaper than ever, it's a superb tool for any DIYer

[@antonstepanov3315]

You can order 3d printing without having your own printer

[@rolandofuentes6444]

Just need a Prusa... hahahaha

[@Danno-df9hq]

Same for the vinyl cutter...^^

[@Sparatite]

I start to design my own f1 wheel based on a mercedes one (to fit with my 3d printer) after watching a lot of your video. Each time i see a new one, i get a new idea and how i can make it. Your work is a great source of inspiration.

[@your_average_cultured_dude]

Holy crap. It looks GORGEOUS. It's crazy how it looks exactly like the real one. Companies like fanatec and heusinkveld should hire you for design and modeling. You're crazy skilled.

[@amstudioprojects]

Thank you!

[@chromo4388]

Love your stuff man. Of course most of us don't have a 3d printer so would love to see more amazing inventions of yours that don't need one. Keep up the good work

[@Simlife101]

You can get the Ender 3 3d printer for £156 I think I paid and wow what a machine for the money. Prints are almost perfect for what i wanted to print ( I'm about to make all the Rims he has made, I will order the blue prints more as support than need as he does a lot for the moding community in Sim Racing and his prices are more than acceptable) Already made the paddle shifters for my Motamec Rim and they work amazingly well. The great thing is once you make one of his wheels or shifters you have a lot of the parts left over like magnets and buttons and switches so it's not like you have to buy everything over and over again, only some of the things are needed in singles but most parts are purchased as bulk so it's great he tries to use the same fixings and parts where possible, makes it's a great deal easier for someone on a tight budget.

[@KuganeSchranz]

Or just Google. Many People offer to print for a few bucks. 3d printing community is super nice 😊

[@freakyfreak7777]

An alternative would be a little woodwork.

[@joeplansink6433]

[@serge933]

Just use a 3D print service online

[@SteeringWheelGameplays]

I'm really surprised of your creativity! Great job! I'm thinking about this kind of wheel to ACC, that would be perfect for GT3 cars. Maybe I will try to reproduce your project 👍

[@michaelwielenga8809]

well yea it is perfect for gt3 cars because its a replica of an actual gt3 car wheel lol

[@hertzmaddentv8304]

We have no words to explain how cool this project is.

[@harshvardhansingh6384]

Love it, request you to release some design that directly fits on G29 for F1, just like screw on without usb encoder. Much appreciated

[@TrevHowsonDemon82]

i cant afford to do any of this but i love watching your videos

[@alfie482]

What was the overall price for materials? How long did this take you? Is a 3d printer needed? Great work there mate

[@ortaegaclan4016]

Love the design but am confused on how all the wheels work/ plug into the ps4 for whatever. I get the physical connecting by changing the adapter on the back but how do u program or so the bottoms work and stuff, also where does the usb cable plug in from the wheel? Keep up the work and would love a custom Porsche themed wheel build.

[@Bob-Jenkins]

@@josephm8707 I'm a tad jealous of his setup, not the wheel base's (I'veall of them myself) but all the cool 'manufacturing' kit - and hid skills of course. 👍

[@Kj-tm7ts]

Hello! Beautiful object. I wanted a clarification about the connection of the usb joystick encoder to the pc, that is I mean you connected it directly to the computer with the usb cable or you made some strange connection inside the steering wheel. Summary: You have connected both the base of the steering wheel and the steering wheel with the usb at the same time.

[@azrhynichol]

@amstudio please reply. I'm curious too.

[@thevmediagroupgaming]

As usual, awesome video!

[@Im_Ezic]

Hi, since you are deep into sim racing I would like to ask. Was g29 a good starter wheel or would Thrustmaster t300 Alcantara suit a beginner better? Your videos are so professional it's crazy. Keep it up ;)

[@radyon955]

T300 would be the way to go

[@giovanitestoni5160]

Good morning, I bought this project 2 years ago and I would like to know if you can provide me the CNC part as a . STL so I can 3d print

Yes there is room for clutch paddles

[@knowyourjoe8826]

One question, will my 3d printer with 180 mm x 180 mm bed be able to print the lower case? Great job!! I already build analog handbrake and button box according to your tutorials!

[@amstudioprojects]

180mm is too small, min recommended is 200mm

[@Bob-Jenkins]

10/10 mate, awesome! Have you thought about making these and selling them? As a fellow Aussie, I'd happily pay for your time (obviously) on top of the materials and the finished product could be posted. Or a button ox to go between an aftermarket rim and a Podium quick-release mount. Just a thought I lack the time or the wiring abilities - the smoke keeps escaping whenever I play with electrics.

[@amstudioprojects]

Yes, definitely considering offering ready made wheels and DIY kits.

[@Bob-Jenkins]

@@amstudioprojects Excellent, I'll be looking forward to hearing about your decision. 👍

[@marktomes6303]

Would defiantly like to purchase one if able....would you post to uk

[@Bob-Jenkins]

@@marktomes6303 I might just quickly jump in on this. I don't know if you're aware but with the basic posting to the UK the receiver is up for (practically) the cost of the item in the UK otherwise the post office will send it back. So unless it's shipped "privately/couriered" you'll be paying for it twice.

pls make a diy independent force feedback steering wheel and 3 pedals using adruino, it would be awesome

Hello, I love your tutorials, I wanted to ask you if it is possible to play forza motorsport 2023 with a logitech g29 base and have it recognize this whell as a separate input, because it happens to me that when I use the keyboard or controller, while driving, I run out of FFB for a moment , I have that doubt since it is what I play the most, Thankyou

[@Squeezy01]

Was the suere used here a suede fabric or like a leather? I have a supplier nearby that could hook me up with suede fabric but I'm afraid the glue will seep into the fabric.
