<p>Yeah, another fidget spinner.</p><p>Perfect way to kill time while riding the busses or train or plane…</p><p>This one is small enough for me to be able to spin it holding any of the bearings. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKC6Y0NgYXU">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKC6Y0NgYXU</a></p><h3>Print Settings</h3><p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p><p>Creality</p><p><strong>Printer:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>Ender 3</p><p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p><p>No</p><p><strong>Supports:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>No</p><p><strong>Notes:</strong></p><p>You can print this design in any material you can print with on your machine, though I imagine a TPU spinner may not spin as well as a rigid one.</p><p>I like the eryone Silky PLA ones, myself, because they draw light circles in the air, when light shines off their surface while spinner.</p><h3>Post-Printing</h3><p><strong>Better with lubricant</strong></p><p>Silicone sprays may react with PLA, so worth testing first on a piece of scrap.<br>Sewing machine oil may be a better choice.</p><p>NOTE: I am able to slip the end of the plastic tube that comes with my spray can of Jigaloo just behind the bearings in the 0.5mm gap spinners. Those ones rattle a bit, compared with the 0.3mm gap ones, but at least the silicone spray tends not to get all over the finish.</p><h3>How I Designed This</h3><p><strong>Inspired by muzz64's thing 2237509</strong></p><p>I developed this spinner as an exercise in learning Fusion 360.</p><p>I have attached my .f3d file to allow others to see how I did this and I have parameterized the file to allow you to "mix your own."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Category: Toys &amp; Games</p>
