Gyroscopic Exercise Ball
thingiverse
This is my take on the iconic Dyna Bee gyroscopic exercise ball that emerged in the late 1970s. It utilizes 48 pennies (US) as the flywheel mass. To give it a twist, I've integrated a geared zip starter to propel the rotor up to speed quickly. From there, you keep it spinning with pure wrist power. Apart from the 3D printed components, you will need a 0.125-inch diameter steel rod and some superglue to assemble it properly. UPDATE: I've revised the shell to make it easier to align the zip starter with the slots in the side. https://youtu.be/PxPEBXRKOyI
