I ended up designing my own big ass knob wheel, tought i’d share it. Enjoy
And since thingiverse preview sucks, here is a better view of the thing :

I’m waiting for someone to put a popsocket on one of these.
You gorgeous genius.
I’m very interested in this what do you suggest to printed it in also hows the install process go is it pretty much common sense
Those of you thank did the 3d printed thumb wheel mod what material did you use and what infill
Well, don’t print it in ABS. It’s too small for the level of detail. I haven’t actually done it but it shouldn’t be difficult to install. The spring is a little tricky. I’d ask @SeanHacker.
Uhh id probz summon…
@SeanHacker he dun do it guuud…
EDIT: fakk looks like @mmaner already summoned him
Double summon ¿
I was looking at PLA what infil would you suggest I dont know anything about 3d printing I have people do it for me would I want 100%
Yep. Just a couple of screws. All you gotta do is pay attention to where the spring is and you’ll see how to put it back on the new thumb wheel.
I printed is in carbon fiber polycarbonate, petg, and pla. All worked out great. I used 100% infill just because it’s a working part and I wanted it as strong as possible.
Spring ? I don’t remember having to deal with any spring.
Iirc, all i had to do was open the cover, remove a tiny srew, swap the wheel, and put the small screw back, nothing else.
Anyway printed mine with petg 100% infill, holding well, but my version don’t have such small spikes, not sure if petg is the best for that.
I have a similar idea. What about a 3d printed sleeve that goes around the puck connected to a handle?
Until then this is my puck mod
Velcro
Yeah @natebolo knows best. Thank you for the tag. I personally hate using my hands for the puck. So @kook recommend to use your ass cheeks as hands and then using your as a thumb. Works wonders. Try it out.
Unfortunately mine wouldn’t work the 3d printed piece isnt deep enough and bottoms out before the screw hole lines up
Did you print this on it’s side, with supports? without? I’m trying a few different positions and wondering what worked for you
You can take a Dremel and route out the inside part if it the screws don’t line up. I just hammered that shit in until the screws lined up. PLA. With a part this small, there really isn’t that much increase to applicable strength between 60% to 100%
Not near my comp at the moment. But I printed just like it’s sitting now on the table. I used supports.
Very nice, I need to get one printed for sure. That beer is AMAZING by the way.
