Modular Tops

cults3d

Modular Tops was inspired by the idea to build a simple custom spinning top together with my daughter. After printing the first prototype, the design kept getting more and more modular. It wasn't long before an optional mechanical starter mechanism was added. Parts like the tip and handles were difficult for her to remove, so I started adding features to allow easy fastening and removing of parts. The starter can be used as a wrench tool on most of the smaller parts. In the end I spent much more time on tweaking and refining all the parts than originally expected. I think the outcome is a pretty nice universal and modular top construction kit. ModularTopsV3_all_parts_v1.2.zip contains all parts sorted in folders and the pdf booklet.
