Flashy fidget spinners

thingiverse

Unusual shaped fidget spinner vaguely reminiscent of a cutaway valve mechanism - looks quite flashy if printed in silk/metal look PLA. Supports not required. Only requires around 9g of filament and approx. 1 hour print time. See the make photos. Two versions are included - a spherical shell version and a rounded cube version. To use the spinner simply hold the two flat faces with thumb and finger of one hand and spin the outer shell with finger of other hand. Please press the Like (heart button at top right) if you like this design. Update 20/02/24 added V8 with changed chamfer angle on the outer holes to reduce overhang angle at top of holes.A generous clearance of 0.5mm is provided between the inner spindle and outer shell so should be reduced chance of binding. If necessary spin with pressure applied to the bearing to smooth any minor rough spots. My test print spins beautifully straight off the printer (see print settings used). Size 30mm cube.
