Description

This is probably my best fidget toy! I printed dozens of them because people asked for them.

It's a small, but satisfying fidget toy. You'll probably not want to wear it all the day due to it's size, but it's unobtrusive enough so you can still do a lot of things while wearing it. But while wearing it, you have a fidget thing right at hand for some quick fidgeting. (I'm wearing one as I type this; and fidgeting with it when thinking about what to type next.)

Also the planet gears look like plus signs - for some positive influence :) and they look quite a bit mesmerizing when moving in perfect unison.

I uploaded 4 sizes, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm and 20mm. If you need another size, ask in the comments and there's a good chance I'll make that.

You might need to use a bit of force to break the gear loose at first, but after a bit of breaking in it is supposed to run quite smoothly.

Happy fidgeting!

Update: Added a 22mm version as STL (Download or Print → Download STL)

14G consumed. Rings need to be worked in a bit and aren’t 100% smooth but they work as expected and printed great using Bambu PLA Basic. Happy with the result!

@ReadyShootAim

pla matte usually (in my experience) works better with moving parts, that may be the root of the issue you are having

Had poor results with some old filament but using fresh filament was flawless. Nice work.

yea i think

@gooto

The default settings for printing were successful, with a two-color version that turned out very well. The colors are bright and vibrant, which is very satisfying.

This fidget toy is amazing! I've uploaded a profile with some addons. The design of the fidget gear ring remains unchanged, I've simply added Outer Shells in the slicer. I hope you like it. Enjoy!
