Making a Steering Wheel From Scratch (DIY time-lapse) [BMW e28]

I design and make a steering wheel from scratch for my BMW e28.

I've seen a handful of videos in which people make their own steering wheels, but they often are for prewar cars and involve re-using most of the old steering wheel. I haven't seen anyone make a contemporary motorsport-style steering wheel similar to MOMO, Nardi, etc. That's what I do here.
