New York-based designer Brent Scott has created a 3D printable mini steering wheel that you can mount onto your Xbox One or PlayStation\u00a04 controller.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As the video game graphics slowly become on par with our own reality, they create an immersive experience that is being enjoyed by people both young and old. However, as realistic as your favorite racing title may be, it\u2019s hard to feel like you\u2019re actually behind the wheel when all you\u2019re doing is tilting your sticks and mashing some buttons.<\/p>\n<p>New York designer Brent Scott\u2013 known on Thingiverse as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thingiverse.com\/pixel2\">pixel2<\/a> \u2013 has recently created an incredible <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thingiverse.com\/thing:3049220\">3D printed attachment for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 controllers<\/a>. This mini rack and pinion steering wheel was made to enhance your experience with racing games, allowing you\u00a0to steer your virtual vehicle of choice using your controller.<\/p>\n<p>No need to start a console war either\u2026 The designer has released a model for both Xbox and PS4 controllers. It\u2019s useful, relatively easy to print, and all you need aside from your 3D printer is a bearing and some glue! So, if you\u2019re planning on doing some gaming this weekend, why not add a 3D printed steering wheel to your controller.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look at this project.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-110325\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/41c74d42f14a1fbfb57223d4750fb3cb_preview_featured.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"628\" height=\"472\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-110324\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/4cfee4aaa42f07b773332d91f25285f6_preview_featured.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"628\" height=\"472\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>3D Printed Mini Steering Wheel: What You Need &amp; How to Build it<\/h3>\n<p>Ready to start racing? Here\u2019s what you need to build your own steering wheel.<\/p>\n<p>The STL files for both the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thingiverse.com\/thing:3049220\">Xbox One<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thingiverse.com\/thing:3062713\">PS4<\/a> controllers are freely available via Thingiverse. There are multiple parts that make up this steering wheel contraption, so feel free to get creative and mix different filament colors. Aside from your 3D printer, all you need to put this project into overdrive is a bearing from an old fidget spinner or skateboard, along with some superglue.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-110328\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/973cb39950293ede71c2fcabcf78a24c_preview_featured.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"628\" height=\"472\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Once you have the parts printed and your bearing ready, it\u2019s time to move into the assembly process. Taking the 3D printed parts, snap the rack into the pivot, moving it back and forth until\u00a0the ridges of the print are smoothed out.<\/p>\n<p>Next, mount the bearing onto the frame by gluing the top and bottom edge of the bearing. Make sure that the glue is fully dried before snapping it onto the controller, as the glue can leave some residue on the controller. After snapping the 3D printed rack onto the frame, mount the entire wheel onto the controller.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div\/>\n<\/div>\n<p>Slide the pivot down onto the controller\u2019s stick until the ball joint is in the center and the bottom\u00a0edge of the pivot is parallel with the rack. Finally, center the wheel on the rack and press it into the bearing.<\/p>\n<p>Now you\u2019re finally ready to get behind the wheel and start racing.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/all3dp.com\/3d-printed-mini-steering-wheel-xbox-one-ps4-controller\/\">[Project] 3D Print a Mini Steering Wheel for Your Xbox One or PS4 Controller<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/all3dp.com\">All3DP<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/8a74ac2e11f3c925146582aca5ca90be_preview_featured-300x169-1.png\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\">&#13;<br \/>\nSource: all3d&#13;<br \/>\n<\/body><\/html><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want to make your video gaming experience even more realistic?
