Mini Spinner

The standard size spinners with skateboard bearings are too bulky for my young kids to handle. Their small fingers can't grasp it firmly, leaving no room for smooth spinning. To address this issue, I created a mini-spinner that perfectly fits tiny hands. The photo showcases the compact spinner alongside a full-size version from Thingiverse, which I didn't design. This miniature spinner utilizes 4x11x4 bearings that were leftover after upgrading my printer's extruder mechanism. I decided to repurpose them by crafting this mini-spinner. To ensure stability while spinning, print two bearing caps and press them into the middle of the central bearing. The holes are specifically designed to fit snugly around the 11mm bearings. If your printer experiences difficulties with the fit, you can adjust the settings in your slicer to make it tighter or looser as needed.
