(OLD version) Analog parking brake for driving simulations

Description

####!! [Click For New Improved Version, Fully Printable](Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2915581) !! Not Happy With **Analog** Handbrakes Being A Pricey Investment For Us Mid-Tier Sim Driving Enthusiasts, And All Of Them Designed For Racing. I Set Out To Make This. *** It Features The Ratchet Locking Mechanism And Button Release Of Road Vehicles (Even Gives The Sound And Haptic Feedback Of One). But Simply By Removing The Pawl'S Rubberband, It Will Turn Into A Drifting Brake. It Has 6X6 Mm Square Holes For Mounting With Zipties Or Bolts, Horizontal Or Vertical Depending On What You Prefer The Lever Uses An Adapter To Fit The Pvc Piping, This Means It Wouldn'T Be Hard To Design A Different Handle That Could Slide On In Its' Stead. ####Non 3D Printed Parts *A Lot Of It Could Probably Be Substituted With Something Else If You'Re Creative* * M6 Threadless Bolt (Threadless Area About 36Mm In Length, Design Shouldn'T Be Too Picky About It) * M3 Screw * Wire Coathanger Cut And Bent To Fit * Pvc Pipe, Mostly Because I Was Unsure If A Printed Tube Would Be Strong Enough * Good Quality Rubberbands * Wh148 ≤10K Potentiometer, ≤15Mm Shaft. And Wires * Teensy Arduino Board (~16$) *** ####Rough Guides: [Assembly](Http://Imgur.Com/A/L9Xpy) [Copy/Paste Programming The Teensy](Https://Docs.Google.Com/Document/D/19Pxunam-G8Oe53Fqhxew5Dshbdb93Udym-_34Lbtbi4/Pub) *** ####Changes History: 1. July 2017 - Added A Lever Mk3 With A Reinforced Rubberband Hook. Old Version Still Available. 25. December 2017 - Bottom "Lever Block Pin" Broke. Added A New Version That Can Be Printed Horizontally Instead Of Vertical, For More Strength. ####In Action [Standalone Demo.](Https://Youtu.Be/Vp7Ugqbzhoi) Clipped From Streams: [Uphill Parking With The Ratchet Enabled](Https://Clips.Twitch.Tv/Cleverzanyclipzsaltbae) [Dirt Rally With Ratchet Disabled](Https://Clips.Twitch.Tv/Moldyimpossiblemochaunclenox)
