Simple and fast fidget toy. You really do need to hammer the top part in place, I did so with the handle of a screw driver.

@Zurlingo3D

@inimstudio Thank you for the kind review. Would you say the need for hammering is an issue or is it OK? - Personally I like how tight and flush fitting it makes the cover, but the only other option would be to glue the cover in place, if I was to increase the hole size. Just wondering if it's worth adding an additional cover with more tolerance, but would be interested in other users opinions? :)

Replying to @Zurlingo3D :

I wouldn't say it's an issue :D Keeping it glue free is a good idea.

printed good but I had to make the holes bigger on the cover

@Zurlingo3D

Did you give it a tap with a hammer? - I can make more tolerance around the holes but it's a fine line between too loose and too tight 😅

lid doesnt stay on had to super glue

The designer has replied

@Zurlingo3D

It does require a tap with a hammer ( or similar) on each corner to properly seat the cover. Tolerances should be on the tight side rather than too loose and requiring glue but thanks for printing :)
