Fidget spinner pocketed pad

thingiverse

This is a redesign on the finger pads of 2ROBOTGUY. I discovered that when I would flick the spinner, it would shoot straight out of my hand. I grew tired of pinching the spinner hard to prevent it from flying away, so I crafted a pocket for my fingers to rest in. Now I can spin effortlessly and not worry about it slipping out of my hand. This was especially a problem when I would walk to class on a hot day and my hands were dripping with sweat. Print Settings Printer: Anet A6 No Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 100% Notes: Originally, I printed with 15% infill and after a few days of fidgeting, the finger pads detached from the twisted pins. So, I would suggest printing this component at 100%. The rest of the fidget spinner I've gotten away with 15%. I've dropped it several times and no signs of lasting damage. Printing with the pad side upwards yields the best feel in your fingers. Printing dense supports also contributes to a smoother finish. Printing pad-side down leaves the surface vulnerable to first layer adhesion issues and may feel rough in your hand after printing.
