Summary
HOW IT STARTED
I recently got my hands on an 3060 Sim Rig, (30x60MM Aluminium Profile), should of opted for an 40x80 or 8020 cockpit instead, but I love it. Recently started getting into rallying and such and figured it'll be smart to 3D Print one instead of paying 100$+ for a decent one.
Found the original creators version and loved it, but the screws and parts he used would of cost me 100$ to find since they don't sell them anywhere near me. (2+ Hours Away)
Worked on projects before so decided to remix it to use parts that are easier to find and parts that I had laying around.
INFORMATION
In the files you can find all the different knobs and such. I'd be happy to customize it to your liking and I hope to upload more and more mounts along with knobs, so anyone can mount it to their cockpit or such.
If you have any questions or wants a change, please comment!
PARTS I USED
2x - V155 Micro Switch
1x - USB Joystick Encoder
2x-6x - Springs They need to be atleast 5mm in Outer-Diameter and atleast 20mm long.
1x - 80mm M10 Hex Bolt (Lever Joint)
4x - 20mm M3 Screws (Micro Switches)
2x - 35mm M5 Countersunk Screws (Springs)
1x - 60mm M5 Hex Bolt (Knob)
4x - 30mm M6 Cap Head Screws (Base)
1x - ~1m Wire (I just got an old USB cable and cut it to length.)
1x - ~ 30cm Heatshrink (Optional but makes it cleaner.)
TOOLS I USED
Creality Ender 3 (BONTEC Direct Drive Upgrade, 3D Printed Knobs, 3D Printed Bed Cable Chain, Creality Ender 3 Pro Power Supply.)
- Pliers
- Rapid Thermal 1600 Heatgun
- Electronic Digital Caliper
- Screwdriver
- Cable Stripper
- Soldering Iron
Print Settings
Printer Brand:
Creality
Printer:
Ender 3
Rafts:
Doesn't Matter
Supports:
Doesn't Matter
Resolution:
0.2
Infill:
20-80%
Notes:
Below are my print settings I used on my Ender 3 for this project. The reason I opted to not use rafts was because it became stuck easily and was near impossible to remove from parts. (Bed Leveling Issue)
SHIFTER BODY
Supports: No
Resolution: 0.2
Infill: 20%
SHIFTER LEVER
Supports: Yes (ONLY Touching Buildplate!)
Resolution: 0.2
Infill: 25%
SHIFTER KNOB'S
Supports: No
Resolution: 0.2
Infill: 30%
SHIFTER BASE'S
Supports: No
Resolution: 0.2
Infill: 80%
I'd recommend you have around a Kilogram of Filament for this project, you won't use it all but just to be safe incase a print fails or such.

ASSEMBLY
Below you can find two videos on how to assemble the shifter and connect it using either an Arduino or USB Joystick Encoder. (NOTE: This shifter may or may not be able to house the arduino inside of it.)*

Im still awaiting parts so this may take a bit before its uploaded.
