See also my Planetary Pumpkin and Planetary Sphere designs. Remixed from: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:53451 Gear Bearing Makes a nice fidget toy which can be easily held and spins freely. The design is print in place so does not require any assembly. Current version has a truncated flat base for easy printing without supports. The toroidal shape makes for nice smooth surfaces. As the outer ring is rotated the planet gears will rotate and cause interesting variations of the shape alignment between the planets and the toroid. ⚠Warning⚠ Be careful in environments with young children and pets!
