Like my work?
Consider a boost! It won't change anything about this model, but will keep me motivated to make other things as well!

Version 1.1 update:

By popular demand.

Added a bearing in L2 and L3.
L2 and L3 now have a larger hole and a separate bearing cap.

Two bearings are needed:
13x5x4mm
(Outer Diameter x Inner Diameter x Thickness)

I ended up harvesting them from these fidget spinners:

https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005007597099086.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.1.215cbhIPbhIP2Q&algo_pvid=c431fc06-2040-4e46-b59b-804c21efedda&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22order%22%3A%22665%22%2C%22eval%22%3A%221%22%7D&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A

They are the only ones that spin really well even with low weight.

The Spinner spins for much longer and smoother now.
------------

Need a way to roll a number between 1 and 1000? This 3D-printed D1000 spinner is the perfect solution! Designed for RPGs, random selection, or just for fun, this spinning D1000 features three concentric rings to generate a unique three-digit result with every spin.

Easy to Use – Spin the rings and let fate decide your number!
Supports Multi-Color Printing – Customize the digits for better visibility.
Compact & Functional – A space-saving alternative to rolling a massive 1000-sided die. (Or just more fun that three D10's!)
Easy to print - Prints with no supports.
Easy to assemble - All parts fit together perfectly ensuring not even glue is needed.

Assembly Instructions:

Combine two halves of axis and place in hexagonal cutout in Layer 1.
Slide flat cap over axis. The disc should now be flush with the top of Layer 1.
Place Layer 2.
Place Spacer ring.
Place Layer 3.
Place handle. (glue optional)
Place tip in underside of Layer 1. (glue optional)

Pro tip:
The tip may need some post processing before it spins perfectly.
You can use a lighter to soften the PLA.

Then quickly rotate the tip between your fingers to smoothen it.

This is a good idea, but sometimes the numbers are a little difficult to determine precisely

@sirrealvisuals

Thanks! That’s what the arrows are for. In your pic, you rolled 600-0-1. So 601. I’m still working on a version which spins in steps.

@user_1245857812

if you roll 000 00 0, is that 0 or 1? what about 000 00 1?

@user_2589769182

Replying to @user_1245857812 :

I consider rolling 000, 00, 0 to be 1 because the top shows the number 1, and I would only consider it 0 if a 0 is needed

The print itself is fantastic! Best to warm up your rotation before spinning so it gets a good even revolution going. It would be really helpful if there was a visual aid of the assembly process. I found instructions in one of the first comments, but they could be a little more straightforward. The axis nut fits SNUGLY in place. I had to bust out some tools to help hammer it in, but eventually got it. If you use the default settings, you don’t have to worry about it breaking. Overall great!

@sirrealvisuals

Thankyou for your rating and reply! You must've just missed the last update to the file description, I had just uploaded some assembly instructions. The axis is indeed the trickiest part. I found that placing them at an angle in the hole makes them fit so much easier. Also, You could first run a bit of sandpaper over the axis and the center holes to make them rotate a bit more smoothly, but I haven't really needed that.

That's great to hear! And I see you updated with a graphic. It was a little frustrating, but definitely not bad enough to warrant less than a 5-star rating. Great job!

Great model and profile. Though I think I didn't assemble it right as it definitely pulls towards one side

@sirrealvisuals

Thanks for sharing. You probably assembled it just fine. Double check how the tip printed. I had to slightly post process mine as the printer placed a tiny blob a little off center which made the whole thing unstable. I even went as far as to heat up the tip with a lighter and manually shape it to be as smooth as possible.

@sirrealvisuals

Replying to @sirrealvisuals :

Oh and also, faster spins means more stability of course. But you don't want it to spin very long, ain't nobody got time for that

super cool and spins surprisingly well. I was a bit bummed to see the identifier dots of the photo are actually arrows that makes the numbers a bit less clean. used this as a base for a d500 and custom adventure dice too.

@sirrealvisuals

Thanks, I’m glad you like it. How did you make it into a D500?

Replying to @sirrealvisuals :

I edited some of the sides of the lowest layer so it now has two 0s, 100s, 200s, 300s, and 400s. My adventure dice includes an encounter roll and random event table of 400, so I made a version of the lowest layer with 2 encounter spots, 4 blanks, and 4 events (as 0, 100, 200, 300).

@user_3850406497

It's quite nice, actually. However, the first and second layers don't run as smoothly as in your GIF. The first two layers stall slightly when rotating, but after one rotation, they stop rotating further. This also causes the three layers not to align perfectly, resulting in an inconsistent outcome. Everything has some play and can move freely. I printed everything with your settings on the A1. What can I do to make it work perfectly? Best regards

You may have pushed the spacer ring a little too tight downwards. It may cause too much friction. Pull up the middle ring a little bit (like 1mm) and see if that helps. If not, you can use a little bit of sandpaper to very lightly sand the holes of the rings for extra smoothness.

thx. i will try this.

I did have an issue with tight tolerances but a little filing and a lighter did the trick.

Printed Great. Dont spin it to fast or it will take a long time to stop.

@sirrealvisuals

Oh wow, that's a cool color scheme! Thanks for sharing and rating!

It printed great but I should have remembered to check the box for flushing into infill.

Tolerances are very tight, but works well. Need to make sure spacing is correct when assembling. Took some fiddling to get the shaft pieces in the hex hole, but that means a great snug fit. Still to tap the handle down fully, but it works fine as is. Now to find a need for a D1000 besides a talking piece 😁
