GTTR6 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 HiI hope someone can help me with some dimensions please I've found a correct MK1 steering wheel that's missing the plastic part of the boss that holds the hornpush, now I think I would be more likely to find unicorn droppings than one of these so I need to make one, can anyone give me the height please? Any help would be most appreciated.CheersJerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieGT Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Hi,A friend is replicating these with a 3D printer, i just received a spare set for my own gt mk1.Interested? Perhaps some more people here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robink Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi,I'm the person replicating them on my own build 3D printer and I'm hoping to get something around 18 pounds for one set (top and bottom) ex. shipping. Would this be fine for you?some pics of the part :the glossy parts you see is ofcourse what you get ;) but the first one is how it comes out of the printer the second is after sandpapering and the glossy one is finished :)Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard B Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Probably a few people would want the MkI PI Boss, which is similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyf Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I've been after a two piece boss kit for a Formula Woodrimmed wheel for ages!I'm not familiar with 3D Printers, how do you replicate the Splined part of the Boss that fits on the the Steering column?Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are replications of the plastic covers. The splined part is a metal piece, which can be sourced and made to fit from other steering wheels as used for tr4 spitfire herald or gt6.

Paudman Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I still can’t get my head round 3D printing….. :B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Thats because you are thinking in 2D ;D3D printing is multiple 2D prints laid on top of each other. Think about building a bricklayer building a house :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paudman Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 i haven’t 2D to rub together… ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robink Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 for the people who are intreseted in how these parts where made I've got a movie of how the parts are printed one movie is when the top is printed and one is for the bottom ;) (it looks fast here.... but it's a whole day of footage ;))movie with bottom :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnsAwOLAz_I&feature=youtu.bemovie with top :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8MLhDhCqmQI've got a life stream of the printer so if you wanna see your parts printed just say so (: !

robink Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 oh btw... here are the dimensions of the horn push I'm currently printing ;) they're not exact because some are a bit bigger because it wouldn't fit at first with this dimensions ;)pics with the dimensions are here : http://robin-k.nl/cloud/public.php?service=files&t=a88782832ea24eef7496201342c28886Custom parts are also possible... small changes are free but if it is a lot different I will maybe charge 2-3 pounds more ;) and shipping to england with track and trace is cheapest way possible 11 pounds... but I will try to find out how much it is without track and trace ;) (I'm from the Netherlands ;))if you ever need anything else 3D printed just send me a pm !greetings Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
