12mm Steel ball spinning top

thingiverse

I scored a great deal on 12mm ball bearings from eBay a couple of months ago for a project that only required a few, so what do you do with over 90 steel balls? I made a lot of spinning tops. This is version 2.0, which works really well and prints quickly. Ball insertion can be a bit tricky, but if you warm up the print first, it's easier to get them in the right position. Have fun making your own creations and don't forget to share them!
