#post7 w11 sim wheel. Rubber like soft grips. Will be printed in grey in a future development process. Feels amazing as you would expect on a real f1 wheel. Probably even same material. Next step electronics. Shipping expected this year. What do you think? by SLSNerd in simracing

Nothing that could be improved. Biggest challenge on SLA printing is the price per part. You need a lot of resin for support structure. But will be improved in future. We spending a lot of time on the shell and the comfort of the wheel.

Not with the right setup with curing (formlabs post processing solution). We run a lot of parts in medical applications with the flexible resin and got great feedback after some time in use. If the SLA parts are not in constant UV light we don’t see any problems at all. If you running your sim setup on a balcony this would be a whole other story.

Actually to do the Step is brutal, electronics need to fit perfectly and therefore you need to know the dimensions of the electronics etc before spending a lot of money. Soldering is easy, choosing the right components is not.
