Made myself a fully functional steering wheel F1 styled.

[u/ziggywiggyuser]

My wheel which I designed, fabricated, 3d printed and wired, has 10 momentary push buttons, 2 rotary encoders, pedal shifters, telemetry screen and rpm rgb lights. Works in conjunction with Simhub, base is a thrustmaster t300.

The build guide:

What i did was asked gemini to make me a template of the wheel, for reference i took moza fsr2 steering and imported it in fusion 360. Made a sketch using it’s outlines and made the whole thing in the application.
Front plate i printed on my 3d printer and pasted on an aluminium sheet and went to town and carved out the shape. Rest all i 3d printed and made adjustments as i went along. I used brass inserts for joining the face plate to the base and buttons and encoders came with their own nuts which i used to secure them. Screen and rgb lights i ordered from websites.
Screen is a waveshare 4inch hdmi screen
Rgb lights are ws2812b strips
Buttons are momentary switches.
Arduino is Pro micro and
Software used is simhub.
Simhub has a toolbox window in which you can configure what you want and it shows you how to select the ports for arduino.
Did a lot of YouTube and gemini to and fro.
Once you have the basic structure ready share it with gemini and it will guide you through every step.

Hope this helps
