I figured I would create a new thread dedicated to this subject.
I've been keeping the Paperboy controller progress under wraps....mainly because I don't want there to be any drama about it.
However, since I'm getting a LOT of the parts finished and it's getting close, I'm going to tease you with this JPG of the complete 3D Solidworks model (minus the small components).
This thing uses a LOT of sheet metal. Luckily, this is something which is right up my alley. The original handlebars were NICKEL plated which looks nice. However, I was thinking of going with a nickel-chrome finish so I could get that mirror shine. Comments?
I've cut ALL the sheet metal parts and I've made MOST of the components for this controller. I still need:
Spacer Bearing
Springs (both type) - I ran these while back but I screwed them up by running them the wrong direction. Whoops!! I was still getting used to my spring making machine at the time...yeah, that's it. LOL
Light Blue handles
Shaft Collar
Handlebar Tubes
White leaf switch buttons & leaf switches.
I've got the remainder under control.
Enjoy!!
