More downloads will follow, but most of it is ‘work in progress’, so still changing.

NOTE: in the Pages section at the right column bottom you may find some pages that are password protected. This is because the designs on those pages have not been fully verified yet.
Once it has been proven that they are working the latest verified design will be uploaded and the password will be removed.

Sketchup 3D MIP design

3D work in progress design of my 737 NG MIP, built with 12 and 9 mm MDF and 44 x 44 mm wooden beams. Click on the picture below to download.

1 1/2 seat because of space reasons, first officer seat misses the rightmost part.
Feel free to modify it to 1 seat or full 2 seat and share the modified design.
Design may not be sold.

Sketchup 3D pedestal design

3D work in progress design of my 737 NG pedestal, built with 12 mm MDF (left over from the MIP), 27 x 27 mm wooden beams, 20x10x2 mm T, 10x10x2 mm L aluminium rails and 3D printed rail connectors .

Throttle Quadrant labels

Throttle Quadrant labels as found on http://www.737ngproject.be, converted to SVG format in Inkscape, texts converted to paths to avoid font problems. Version using fonts.

Flaps guide design

Alu flaps guide design SVG and DXF

Flaps optical encoder wheel

Note: in the latest design of my throttle quadrant the flaps handle uses a potentiometer instead that is mapped as a joystick axis to X-Plane.

Flaps optical encoder wheel design SVG and DXF

Flaps handle

Flaps handle mechanism design SVG and DXF.
Using pieces of adhesive furniture felt from the Action shop for smooth sliding.
At the photographs the top of the fixed part of the handle has an extra 2mm plate because the distance between handle and aluminum guide was a bit too large. The design in the SVG and DXF files has been updated (bent sliding part 2 mm shorter so that the handle comes 2 mm closer to the aluminum guide) so that the extra plate is not needed anymore.

TQ panel 3

Note: as my throttle quadrant design is still in progress it is recommended to check the Sketchup 3D model instead because panels still may change.
Also see my YouTube video tutorials on how to export STL files (for 3D printing) and DXF (for CNC cutting) from the Sketchup model.

Potmeter gear design

Potmeter gear design (32 T, modulus 1, matches with electromagnetic clutch ) in SVG, DXF and Estlcam format. G-code (single flute 1 mm end mill bit) D-shaft center hole and gear outline.
Sketchup 2016 3D source design 3 mm thick, Sketchup 2016 3D source design 5 mm thick, STL format 3 mm thick, STL format 5 mm thick for 3D printing.
The supplier where I purchased the original clutch unfortunately doesn’t sell it anymore, but I have found this possible replacement that has the same axis hole, gear diameter and number of teeth. It is a bit less deep and somewhat less Nm, but I expect it must be strong enough to replace the ones that I used.

Other projects: cheap Bluetooth keypad based DIY page turner pedals

A small, unrelated CNC project for the summertime when there is less time for cockpit building, but I needed a place where the design can be downloaded.
Mechanical construction of two pedals that use a cheap Bluetooth wireless keypad to turn music score pages in the IOS app PiaScore.
