I wanted to wall mount my SimMagic DD Steering wheel, but other than having to buy a full or even half a hub at a huge cost, i thought i might have a go at printing one.

 

V1 was printed and was too tight of a fit and require sanding. Also had to manually add in some relief cuts for the ball  bearing runs.

V2 has a slightly thicker base, connecting part 1mm thinner in diameter, relief cuts for the bearing runs and also relief cuts in the top to account for the connection pins in the wheel base.

V5 (missed a few) has fully cut dish so that it doesnt collide with the new pins on the Simagic wheels. Also removed the notches for ballbearings and switched it to a full cut out. Full disclosure, i havent printed this myself yet, so there is every chance i got the measurments wrong. Let me know if thats the case, but i do plan to print this at some point.

Step file also added.

 

I printed (Ender 3) with standard PLA, 5 layers top/bottom, 5 walls and 50% cubic subdivision infill. The thing feels pretty sturdy and you might get away with less infill. Print took about 2 hours at 0.28mm layer height.
