    Hi

    Here the handle of the hand brake stem thread with 10mm aluminum tube with a rod of car damper rubber shower to center the filter rod in the tube and the sleeve is an umbrella handle:grin

    -tige threaded 10mm
    alu-tube (shower rod:p)
    - 2 rubber tube inside diameter
    Umbrella -manche
    -1 switch
    -1 Ball 10 mm
    -1 spring

    In the box everyone can do as they want from the moment the passage of the tube in the box is not too wide, so that the handle does not bar a right or left because of the ball, so the material chosen for passage will be either wood or plastic with friction.

    The small plastic part is a setting to lock the lever end of this race.

    Nice work!!

    Have you thought about adding a brake master cylinder to give it a hydraulic feel?

    It would have been ideal, I have to make it faster and simpler because it's still better now to have a handbrake rally, it was not practical with the steering wheel button.

    For future handbrake why not;)

    Bon travail comme d'habitude !
    Ce système serai très simple à faire évoluer avec une jauge de contrainte.

    Good work as usual! This system will be very simple to evolve a load cell.

    The return of the course is not so fast and reactive but it is "normal" and depends that witch couse if you want for your handbrake.
    For me it is good and more than acceptable. :thumbs
