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

    It sticks to his phone via a 3rd party magsafe adapter, presumably like the one I have on my phone to mount a popsocket and removed

        My point was, and remains, that if you’re gonna comment on this dude’s cool thing he made, maybe try not to be a pedantic asshat when the aforementioned dude who created the cool thing essentially calls it Loctite instead of thread locker.

            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?
