Chopstick Propeller

thingiverse

This design has been extensively refined through multiple iterations to achieve a fun and unique outcome. Printing with supports yields optimal results, particularly when using PLA material. However, there's an issue with file orientation - they're saved with the propeller axis skewed sideways. To correct this, position the file so that the central hole is facing upwards and the entire length of the propeller is in contact with the bed; it will only align correctly in a single configuration. After printing, secure a chopstick into the central hole using hot glue or an alternative adhesive. Note that chopsticks vary in design, which may result in difficulties finding one that fits perfectly. The file "Propeller 4" represents the most recent iteration and produces the best results. Once you've inserted the chopstick, spin it between your hands to generate momentum before releasing it into flight.
