Magnetic Fidget Flip

CLICK HERE CHECK OUT THE VIDEO TO SEE IT IN ACTION

This fidget uses the power of magnets, creating a flipping motion as opposite poles attract. The indentations all around are not just for the ease of flipping, they also provide a calming, tactile experience that can help promote relaxation and comfort. 

This fidget also has neurodivergent support in mind. Whether you are looking for a tool to help with focus, sensory processing, or stress relief, this can help in many ways:

Fine Motor Skill Development: The repetitive flipping motion encourages hand-eye coordination, grip strength, and dexterity, which can be especially beneficial for individuals with ADHD, autism, or motor delays.

Sensory Regulation: Engaging with a rhythmic, predictable movement can help balance sensory input, providing a grounding experience for folks who may feel overwhelmed by their environment or circumstances.

Anxiety & Stress Management: The soothing, repetitive motion helps activate the nervous system’s calming response, helping to reduce restlessness, nervous energy, and stress.

This is part of our ongoing mission to give back! We have been donating prints like this to local schools and hospitals to support kids, patients, and anyone who might benefit from a simple yet powerful tool like this. 

This print utilizes a pause in the print for you to place the magnet in, so no glue or assembly is needed. Just be sure when you install the magnets that they are done with the right orientation. These do require stronger magnets for the effect to be most noticeable. The stronger that magnet you use, the stronger the attraction will be as well as the louder the “click” together. I use Magnet Baron for all my magnets as they are the best for all use cases and have a great strength factor to them. I have found that 12mmx2mm disc magnets to be the best. I have partnered with Magnet Baron to offer 10% off using the code/link below. I also added the negative space in Bambu Studio so you can adjust the size to your preferred magnet.

I requested not to have an affiliate benefit/gain, rather, I would prefer any kind of benefit to be given to others by way of a discount, so, they have offered to give me a discount code to give out.

This link will automatically apply the 10% off to your basket: https://themagnetbaron.com/discount/BaronWilliams

Or you can use the code: BaronWilliams at checkout.

Bambu 3MF, Generic 3MF, and plain STLs are available. For STLs, you will need to add your own pause in print.

There are a couple profiles to choose from:

Profile 1: Uses two magnets for each flipper, so 4 magnets total for a pair. This makes it so each end magnetizes to another end. This version is the easiest one to use. There are a few plates on this profile depending on how many you want to print.

Profile 2: Uses 1 magnet for each flipper, so 2 magnets total for a pair. This makes it so only the colored portion is magnetized so you have to do a full flip to connect the two pieces. This is for more advanced use, and in my opinion, a lot of fun. There are a few plates on this profile depending on how many you want to print.
