Hello everyone, here is my take on a simple way to automate the spooling process. The design goal was simple : simple, frugal, straight to the point and cheap. It's ugly but it does the job&nbsp;Make sure your central spool part runs true before attempting to motorize. Else you'll just melt plastic and your motor.&nbsp;&nbsp;Bill of materials :<ul><li>M3x6 : 9</li><li>M3x14 : 3 (M3x12 works too!)</li><li>M3x5.7 heat inserts : 11 (I used the Ruthex ones)</li><li>Greartisan 200RPM DC Motor (https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B071GTTSV3?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1)</li><li>5.5x2.1 barrel jack female (https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B083M3RV4J?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details)</li><li>DC Motor control board (https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B08NTH4J3F?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details)</li><li>Laptop power supply (https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B07YWSDK87?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details)</li><li>18 AWG Cables (silicon insulation will help with the bending angles!, PVC will be harder but works)</li><li>Soldering iron and solder</li></ul>&nbsp;Assembly :<ul><li>Insert heat inserts in the gearbox cover just like with the normal V-Spooler.</li><li>Insert the 3 new inserts in the gearbox cover (there are 3 new holes on the other side)</li><li>Install the gearbox cover just like with the normal V-Spooler</li><li>Solder 2 cables to the poles of the DC Motor. They should be around 7 cm, but double check they can reach the DC motor controller in the housing</li><li>Solder 2 cables to the poles of the barrel jack. They should be around 5 cm, but double check they can reach the DC controller in the housing</li><li>Take the DC Motor and slide it into the motor housing (cylinder with 3 arms thingy). Secure it with at least 3 M3x6 screws, more is not needed but your OCD might make you put one in every hole.</li><li>Take the adapter and shove it on the motor axle. It might take some convincing. Tap it with a heavy object, but don't go all the way. Leave at least 5 mm from the end of flat surface (refer to the pictures if unclear)</li><li>Screw in the motor assembly to the gearbox cover using the new inserts you installed during step 2, using M3x14 or M3x12 screws.</li><li>Slide in the electronic housing around the motor. It should slide nice and easy. Pull the cables so they reach inside the housing</li><li>Install the barrel jack and secure it with the nut. </li><li>Pull all the cables and screw them all accordingly on the controller's terminal (refer to the datasheet or the PCB's underside).</li><li>Remove the “cosmetic” dial from the controller, alongside the washer and nut, leaving only the bare threaded metal.</li><li>Remove the switch from the controller (disconnect the wire connector)</li><li>Press fit the switch on the rectangular panel hole</li><li>Connect back the switch onto the controller</li><li>Slide the controller between the 2 rails in the electronics housing.</li><li>Put the panel on electronic housing and screw it on using 4 M3x6 screws (on the sides)</li><li>Put back the washer, nut and dial on the potentiometer.</li></ul>&nbsp;Voilà!Very detailled steps but hopefully you'll see it's not that difficult. The electronics housing acts as a “third leg” because the motor makes the V-spooler tip to its side. The electronic housing “spins” freely around the motor housing. I didn't do anything to lock it in place, as it's not necessary. Refer to the pictures if in doubt.

This print is an easy 3-part assembly. You don't need any supports or glue. Just print and click it together. Perfect to test your printer or just as a fidget on your desk. It makes use of a spring gear that will bring back the knob that you are moving back to the center every time. I can even use it with one hand and reload with the other hand. Every make will be featured on my Instagram add your handle and follow me :) Check out <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tomo_designs/" rel="nofollow">my Instagram</a> if you want to see more designs like this or if you have questions!Do you want to support me or become a reseller of my designs?

Be careful downloading prints called “Fast” etc, those might be faster but that's because of a weaker design, they are spammers just taking the original profile, lowering the integral strength to get it to print faster, and as explained below, there needs to be a balance in the force of the spring and the rubber band. Those profiles might not work as well as intended. Its just spammers racing to the bottom, give them enough attention and soon there will only be profiles with 1 wall and 2% infil thats printed in 5 minutes but falls together if you look at it long enough.&nbsp;Double action OTF fidget toy for the fidget toy design competition.&nbsp;All you need is plastic and a rubber band!&nbsp;<img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/234870/2023-11-13_2404c2f7a37e2.gif">&nbsp;If you like the idea but dislike the design bookmark the model and visit it after the competition is over and I will release all the source file so you can easily modify the body or blade/comb!&nbsp;<h2>Assembly instructions:</h2>NOTE: For the double action to work you need to have a balance between your rubber band and the springs holding the blade. You can use the strongest rubber band you can find and it wont really matter, but the switch will be harder to push. So you might want to try around with different rubber bands or different materials for the springs. If the switch is to hard for your liking, your rubber band is to strong. If the blade/comb does not fully extract or retract, your rubber band is to weak or your springs are to stiff.&nbsp;<figure class="media"><div data-oembed-url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rN4wuBX-5q8"><div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 100%; height: 0; padding-bottom: 56.2493%;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rN4wuBX-5q8" style="position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; top: 0; left: 0;" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div></div></figure>&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>How it works:</h2><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/234870/2023-11-18_6157ed5d0cf8b.png">

Quick print of a PTFE clip which goes on the cable chain. Prevents the tube hitting the top glass or ams etc.&nbsp;Printer 0.2 layer heigh with 3 walls. Suggest printing it with PETG at minimum.&nbsp;It's designed to be tight fit. I found other designs to have either the PTFE cut out too large and the tube would come out or the lips holding the cable chain to be too small, and it clips off.&nbsp;To fit it, insert the top first onto the cable chain.
