Description

Fidget Toy - DPAD Buttons

The second in a series of fidget cubes i plan to make, mainly to come up with interesting mechanisms.

 

Fully 3d printed springs push against the buttons, I have printed these in PLA and PLA+, i have not tested any other materials and would be interested in any feedback on the spring performance.

 

The Springs are pre supported, use a knife or snips to remove the built in support!

 

Simple print and assembly, everything is push fit without the need for glue.

 

Fidget Series:

  1. Click Wheel
  2. DPAD Buttons

 

Enjoy!

the modeled supports for the springs do not have a good interface with the spring itself causing the springs to break on the layer lines. I will be making my own supports for these springs. the pitch of the springs would benefit from being greater so that it works better with the orientation and does not cause permanent deformation when depressed.

The support shouldn't interface with the spring too well or it wouldnt be removable, try another filament if it's splitting at the layers for you. Permenant deformation is fine, just dont fully compress it before placing in the casing which is why it's oversized. Increasing the pitch would reduce the amount of interface of each layer making it more likely to break. Try cutting the support out to reduce the chance of it breaking on you
