Title: Arcade Spinner / Wheel Combo!
Post by: miles2912 on August 27, 2005, 06:40:29 pm

Why hasn't someone inventd a simple wheel that would atttach/clamp onto a spinner and provide a wheel for arcade driving games?   If the spinner is too delicate, make  a beefed up version to take the abuse some of us give the wheels (grin).

Put me down for one please.  :)

Reviews are mixed...  Seems to be a not great quality piece, but it's inexpensive so that's to be expected..

you dont need a beefy spinner. Your steering wheel needs to be tough, you could do a nice solid shaft,(with bearing or nylon bushed), for your wheel and connect the spinner on the end using a simple coupling, this way the spinner will have no load applied to it. Too easy
