Spinny Cube

Update: I made a mistake, Body_2 now includes the ring for mounting the bearing. Honestly, I'm not sure how the first .stl didn't include that. This Spinny Cube was inspired by a design I saw on Reddit. That spinner was still in production and I really wanted to have it in my hands right away. Demo Video The Body: The current body I made is designed to use 608 Bearings. For printing, I left this flat on its side and used 50 Degree supports. This will require some cleaning to make smooth. The Caps: These caps were printed on their flat faces. Both caps are crucial to print. Each cap has a slightly different alignment between the helix connector in the center and the nubs on the outside. The caps should be almost flush in the cube when in place. A vice or press may be needed to press these into place, I plan on making a flat-to-cube-sided adaptor to make this easier. Expect to do some sanding on the rounded faces to obtain the smoothest spin.
