need info to make a custom whiz wheel

Graf Paper · 10-30-08, 12:01 PM

There was someone who had released a printable Whiz Wheel based on the actual tool used by the Kriegsmarine. It is a series of high-res bitmaps that you could print out and then layer them together to make a working wheel.

Fortunately for you, gutted, I have these files and have uploaded them to my FileFront account for you to download. I think it is exactly what you're looking for.

That would be Hitman, who already posted above.

I'll be dang-digitty-doggone!

You're absolutely right, Steve. I took a closer look at the documentation included and it is indeed Hitman's handiwork. I should have known!

Did I ever tell you how much I love that Whiz Wheel and that you did an awesome job creating it, Hitman?

LOL thanks, even if you didn't read the readme as I see :rotfl:

Oh, I read the readme. I just neglected to scroll all the way to the bottom, once I'd covered the info needed to print and assemble the Whiz Wheel.

Better late than never?

BTW this all reminds me that I did an improved version of the wiz-wheel some time ago but I never uploaded it since I lacked the time to do again a tutorial/manual

I hope that I will be able to do it somewhen
