Yeah, another fidget spinner.

Perfect way to kill time while riding the busses or train or plane\u2026

This one is small enough for me to be able to spin it holding any of the bearings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKC6Y0NgYXU

Notes:

You can print this design in any material you can print with on your machine, though I imagine a TPU spinner may not spin as well as a rigid one.

I like the eryone Silky PLA ones, myself, because they draw light circles in the air, when light shines off their surface while spinner.

Post-Printing

Better with lubricant

Silicone sprays may react with PLA, so worth testing first on a piece of scrap.
Sewing machine oil may be a better choice.

NOTE: I am able to slip the end of the plastic tube that comes with my spray can of Jigaloo just behind the bearings in the 0.5mm gap spinners. Those ones rattle a bit, compared with the 0.3mm gap ones, but at least the silicone spray tends not to get all over the finish.

How I Designed This

Inspired by muzz64's thing 2237509

I developed this spinner as an exercise in learning Fusion 360.

I have attached my .f3d file to allow others to see how I did this and I have parameterized the file to allow you to \"mix your own.\"
