I designed this as a handbrake for racing sims where you only need momentary braking without a ratcheting mechanism, like drifting. You can probably use this for a lot of other functions since it's just a simple switch. My favorite examples (off the top of my head):
- Arm to deploy parachutes or other single-use functions
- Rocket boost lever
- A lever for your evil henchmen
- Cookie dispenser
- Vegetable dispenser
The arm will rotate about 45 degrees before it hits the switch. Since I am in the US, and it's easy and cheap to find inch sized fasteners, the arm's shaft is a 1/4" threaded rod. All other fasteners were designed as metric fitment. I did include a couple extra versions of shaft pieces to help use a metric threaded rod. Here is a list of the parts and what you can use instead:
- Arm frame - this is the base for everything, and is common for all parts
- Bearing Pivot - three provided, all use the same bearing, but there are three versions with the appropriate ho
