prusaprinters

<p>Have fun with this Mark II discrete (as in discontinuous) fidget ring! If you like the <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/133578-print-in-place-fidget-ring">standard fidget ring</a>, the <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/136143-print-in-place-dual-fidget-ring">dual fidget ring</a>, but would like to have something more functional, this is it. The internal structure of the ring makes it stop only in 16 directions, showing a specific number from 1-8 through both windows (both on the upper and on the lower half of the ring, so they are easy to find).</p><figure class="image image-style-align-center image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/149037/rich_content/5d4da140-9813-4c58-b604-4f98d94ac73b/2022-03-12_01h32_44.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%229bdb322d-2136-4d72-acab-ab8caa577dc3%22%2C%22w%22%3A623%2C%22h%22%3A329%7D"></figure><p>In this crosssection you see that all numbers are available twice, on opposite sides of the ring. This way, the holes in the ring will show always the same number.</p><figure class="image image-style-align-center image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/149037/rich_content/9c606bf7-a41c-4b8b-88a6-214e23a577ec/2022-03-12_01h33_27.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22d3ec6fde-6f60-4b72-8d43-2baa84871c8f%22%2C%22w%22%3A579%2C%22h%22%3A335%7D"></figure><p>So you can use the ring to generate random numbers or as a replacement for a 12-sided dice. Also it feels quite different to spin and creates a little rattling noise when spinning.</p><p>In case you want to customize things, please install <a href="http://www.openscad.org/">OpenSCAD</a> on your own computer and follow these <a href="https://www.dr-lex.be/3d-printing/customizer.html">instructions</a> to customize your ring.</p><p><strong>Thanks</strong> go out to <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/social/172705-ixpatch">ixpatch</a> for the idea to create a “dice ring”.
