Description

Edit 5/25/24: Uploaded print profile for arrow model and added a smooth/no texture model to the downloads section. 

 

Edit 1.013: I've had several inquiries about commercial licensing of this model. The only reason I didn't go public domain with it in the first place is I didn't want to be a target for people with similar models. 

 

However I know that I designed this myself, included the STEP file to prove it, and it's already public due to me designing it on a free Onshape account. Also there are models now you can find that even copied the outer texture of the clock shop model I was worried about. 

 

All that to say I'm releasing this public domain. Feel free to sell these in your shop. 

 

I'm honored that this model has been recieved so well. I expected less than 100 downloads and the count is well into 3k and goes up all the time. I love that people are enjoying this as much as my wife and people in my life have. I do well financially, so paying me for the use of this model is silly to me. If you feel an obligation or some kind of guilt, I suggest giving a small amount to a local animal shelter or autism awareness center in your area. That would mean far more to me than collecting on this. But even that is not required. 

 

Thank you for the wonderful comments and pictures, it's awesome to see this fidget in so many colors. Enjoy!

 

Edit: updated with increased tolerances. It was a bit tight for regular pla, but worked well with silk. Also added a different outer texture that I personally prefer. Easier to hold on to but may not be as comfortable for some.

 

Another fidget spinner. This one is inspired by the ones sold on the clock app. Couldn't find a smooth spinning one to print, so I made one in onshape. Spins far better than most of the ones from printables.

 

My best results came from printing .16 layer height, 3 walls and 50% infill to give it some weight, but YMMV.

 

Step files included, in case someone wanted to make a different outer texture and re-upload.

 

Have fun!

With normal PLA movement was a bit stiff. With Silk PLA it was absolutely perfect. Quality was great and it moves really nice

After printing a few more myself, I noticed this as well. I plan to update with increased tolerances for regular pla.

love the arrow version, I noticed that if you drop it hard enough, it can start to wiggle more and gets noisy. the arrow edges are a bit sharper than the other version but I love the grip it gives. great model.

I printed one of these and sent it to a family member. It took a little while for it to spin smoothly. Awesome fidget spinner. Thanks for sharing,
