Description

BreezeBuddy

This is the BreezeBuddy! A fun summer toy that makes you able to spin a fan around insanely quickly with only a squeeze of your hand :). This is therefore my own version of a so-called “squeeze fan”.

 

You need the following to assemble this:

5 x M3 bolts

5 x M3 nuts

 

And that's all! Have fun using the BreezeBuddy <3

What printer did you use? did you have the flow calibrated? I once printed a version of this fan on an Ender 5 Plus and I had issues until I calibrated the flow and dimensional accuracy.

love the idea and general approach. could be optimized a bit more to decrease noise, increase speed and wind generated. agree with others who said rhythm is important. disagree with those that said it was a hard build, but adding a picture with one side off would be helpful.

yup, lots of room for optimization. Thanks for the good review and the positivity 🙂

Could you tell me what the purpose of printing this fan is?

Replying to @SketchyDK :
I run into it locking up when fully depressed very easily. I realize this is the rhythm portion discussed, just adding a note, that's an optimization I'd love to see! All in all, great print. I'll see about doing a remake with some changes. Thanks for posting this! (my 5 star review is inc.)

A brim might make problems IMO, especially for the gears, IMO a brim is not required unless printing in ABS.

Very cool little print. I added a small amount of grease to the gears to smooth the whole thing out. Only thing I would ask for in the future is a bigger fan blade. Thanks for the "cool" print!

hi, the design is nice. but when you make print profiles, make sure the object lasts over time.

I agree, 5% infill is too low

Easy print. The X1C was able to make it print on a single plate. The inside picture was nice to determine how to assemble, thank you. Kind of hard to get used to for rhythm to make consistent air movement. Wrong action negates all momentum.

yeah, takes some rythmic skills. Also, i have plans to make a better fan for better air flow, since the ring around the fan should make the air flow worse. But Im glad u found it easy to assemble 👍🙂

My cat said, "You are doing this for nothing." I should have listened to my cat. It makes a lot of noise, it requires a lot of power, and it causes problems because it does not always provide full rotation.

Some issues can be fixed and some can't that easily... Yes, it does indeed make a lot of noise since the parts are all in.. well, plastic. Could've used steel bearings but that would make it non-available for a lot of people. I'll also publish a new fan design soon that will ensure a more complete rotation and hopefully more wind-speed. In conclusion, it is just a toy and shouldn't be taken that seriously after all :)
