Fidget spinner for small children

thingiverse

My 5-year-old son really wanted a spinner, so instead of buying one that was too big, I decided to print this smaller one using materials I had at home. It fit perfectly for his small hand and he was absolutely thrilled. The screws allowed the spinner to balance perfectly. Here are the specifications: Ball bearing: 13 x 6 x 5 mm (D x d x H) Screws: 3 x M8 x 16 I printed the outer parts with a moderate level of infill, using 5 layers and 18% material. For the inner parts, I opted for a higher level of infill, printing them at 100% and adding 50 outer layers. To assemble the spinner, I first pressed the bearing into place, then inserted the first inner part in the same direction. I added a small amount of CA glue inside the bearing before pressing in the second inner part towards the first. Enjoy your new DIY spinner!
