Triple Lindy Fidget Spinner

thingiverse

This is a triple-decker functioning fidget spinner that's absolutely absurd, yet incredibly fun to make. The key print here is the connector, which snaps together two bearings that are each part of an individual fidget spinner. A spacer is needed between them to keep them from banging into each other. I've included three different spinners - one with Triple Lindy Spinner written on it, one with no text, and another that's slightly smaller. Having the two different sizes can create a really cool effect when spinning. The connected spinners can go in the same direction or opposite directions. To make the third (optional) layer, you'll need to add three of the "miniSpinners," each using only one bearing and small enough not to collide with each other when attached to the outer bearings of the main spinner. I'll leave it up to you to figure out how to make this a quadruple spinner - hint: it's really easy. Everything is designed for standard 608ZZ bearings, so feel free to mix and match parts creatively. To create the triple lindy in the picture, you'll need 11 bearings. Then you'll need to print four connectors, four spacers, three miniSpinners, one regular spinner (with or without text), and one spinnerSmaller. The minSpinners can make it difficult to hold and still spin everything, so it's best to put it on a table as shown in the first picture, then everything can be set in motion. If you want your own customized spinner with text, try my Custom Captioned Fidget Spinner (Dual Extrusion). It's named after the most amazing dive I saw down at the Steel Pier in Jersey.
