Oh, so close!! Actually the part I am looking for is really close to that

Anyone else ready to make the virtual part in exchange for real parts?

I got your Jack Stone steering wheel right here, baby!

I cheated a little- it is functional in ldraw, but looks like... uh,
something that rhymes with "species".  But it looks great in POV-Ray.  If I
had a torus generator handy I could fix half of the problem, and if I'd just
take the time to fix the arm / hub interface, I could fix the other half.
Perhaps tomorrow I'll have something better.  For now...

Tony, My rubberbelt generator (or the derived one included in MLCad) can be used to generate toruses using 4-4cyli primitive. Simply use two identical pulley diameters and a very small distance between them. See example below... Philo (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)

Here's an updated version with a better torus. The end result is very similar to what Orion did, though I did it slightly more manually than using the belt tool.
