Independent projects, made possible together

ZebbeBa
Project

ZebbeBa Project creates one-off sim racing components inspired by real motorsport hardware: steering wheels, button boxes and displays.

I publish projects I genuinely want to design and build. A backer covers the direct material and hardware costs; I contribute the research, design, engineering and build time. When the project is finished, the backer receives the completed piece.

Current workshop capacity is approximately committed through the end of 2026. New projects can still be discussed and backed, but their development start will depend on the existing queue.
The process

From interest to shipment

A project develops openly over time, with costs tracked and progress shared throughout the build.

Interest

A small independent workshop
Around 15 projects have already been developed this way with 7 customers. Each project is personal, limited in number, and developed over time rather than produced as an ordinary commercial product.
