I’ve been playing some gyroscope based racing games on my phone and thought it would be cool to have a physical steering wheel to hold.

Since I already have a magsafe ring stuck to the back of my OnePlus Open I designed it to use magnets.

Functionally it makes the games way easier to play since you can really precisely tilt the phone. You can even steer one-handed pretty easily too

The magnets I used are a little weak so I’ll be replacing that with another stronger magnet ring I have

    You may think it’s pedantic but it’s not. Words matter. Especially when those words are made-up marketing bullshit for words we already have.

      When someone asks you for a Kleenex you correct them or do you just hand them a tissue?

      When someone asks if you have Q-Tips do you correct them?

            This seems like a perfectly legitimate and honest question. /s

                What makes you think I don’t know CAD already?

                I am contributing. I realize you disagree and are offended but thats reality.

                  The lack of any original designs in your post history says otherwise

                    So…because I don’t post them on Lemmy, I don’t know anything about it? That’s the logic you want to go with?
