Hogwarts Tower

myminifactory

This object was designed and built using Tinkercad https://www.tinkercad.com/things/77KeovbFBdk The Hogwarts tower consists of fifteen distinct components. To assemble everything, print each part once, except for pins (03), which require four prints. The assembly process is as follows: 1) Mechanism - insert the vertical shaft (02) into the large gear (01) and secure it with a split pin (03). Then, slide it from the bottom onto the mechanism holder (04). Place the plate (05) on top and secure it with a split pin (03). 2) Putting the mechanism into the tower - insert the mechanism into the grooves of the lower part of the tower (07), making sure the mechanism hole is aligned with the hole in the side of the tower. Next, insert the horizontal shaft (08) through the hole closer to the edge into the handle (09). Secure it with a split pin (03). Apply the small gear (06) from inside the tower to the large gear (01), ensuring they fit together perfectly and align with the hole in the side of the tower. Insert the shaft with the handle from outside the tower into the hole, then secure it with a split pin (03) on the side of the small gear (06). Place figures (10, 11, 12, 13) onto the plate (05). Finally, place the upper part of the tower (14) onto the lower part of the tower (07), and mount the roof (15). That's it. Every time you turn the crank, a new character appears in the tower window. If you don't like the characters, you can create your own (the pedestal has a diameter of 20 mm). Alternatively, you can place a mini LED candle in the middle of the plate if desired.
