Filament sample card carousel

thingiverse

I crafted a spinning carousel tailored specifically for my filament samples. The design accommodates 36 slots, perfect for holding sample cards, business cards, credit cards, or any other item that fits snugly within it. In the file "cardholder_v4.stl," each slot is precisely 1.1 mm thick. In contrast, the file "cardholder_1.2mm_v1.stl" showcases slots measuring 1.2 mm in thickness. If you wish to utilize my filament sample cards, I recommend visiting the following links: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4050941 or https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4046311. For optimal results, I suggest printing the 1.2 mm version of the carousel, as the 1.1 mm variant may prove too tight a fit. This might be due to my own experience with printing in PETG material. However, if you plan to use the carousel exclusively for business cards, the 1.1 mm thickness should suffice. A hole is strategically positioned on the bottom of both files for mounting a 608 bearing. On the platform file, the pin for the bearing measures precisely 7.9 mm. I have included Fusion360 files for those who wish to modify or customize this design.
