This is v4 of the original Fidget Puck
Requires one 608 (608z/zz) ball bearing
Update 2024-06-24: I'm currently working on a much improved v5, stay tuned!
“What? You jumped from v1 straight to v4?”
Well, v2 and v3 were so embarrasing, they shall forever be buried in the depths of my SSD
This project started as a small 35 mm turntable. While it serves that purpose, I found myself constantly playing with it in my pocket.

Use for:
Let me know if you find any other cool uses
Updates in v4:
The supplied project file prints at 0.12mm layer height for good detail and smooth outside. I like to printe this on the textured PEI plate for better grip and nicer haptics.
Tolerances / bearing fit:
As long as you print with my tested parameters, tolerances should allow for a good press fit that still can be manually pulled apart when needed. My test setup:
Production and assembly:
Hint: if you print this model in black on a textured plate and print (or paint) the inner shroud white, it turns into a fidget Oreo 😊
