Spinning Jet Engine Fan Pen Holder

thingiverse

This is an interactive pen holder that uses two free running 608 bearings to spin a jet engine fan at incredible speeds. As an engineering student, I was looking for the perfect desk toy to showcase my passion for innovation, but couldn't find one that fit my unique style. To solve this problem, I remixed CATIAV5FTW's 3D Printable Jet Engine Fan and created a customized design that perfectly captures the essence of a jet engine fan in action. Check out the GIF below to see it spinning in all its glory! Due to technical difficulties, I was unable to upload a video, but this animated image gives you a great idea of how this interactive pen holder works its magic. A special note: The cone is specifically designed to fit my trusty Parker pen. However, if you have a different type of pen that you'd like to use with this design, don't worry - the model can be easily adapted within Fusion 360 to fit your pen of choice. Just download the file and start customizing!
