Functional one way clutch model

Inspired by a captivating video from Maker's Muse on YouTube, I embarked on an experiment to push the limits of compactness and see how small I could shrink their ingenious design to create a fully functional model from my Anet A8 3D printer. This is what I came up with - a completely new design from scratch: About 32mm in diameter and just 6mm tall, it's impressively tiny. A quick and easy print that takes less than 30 minutes to complete. With some minor adjustments needed for smooth operation, but it works flawlessly - moving one way without any issues, blocking the other direction with ease. The slight braking issue can be easily resolved by inserting a hex key into the central hole. Full credit goes to Maker's Muse for their original idea, and here is a slightly modified link to their inspiring video (altered to avoid automatically embedding it as a thumbnail on Thingiverse): https://youtu.be/UIhCPl8eb7s
