Description

Modular rainbow wind spinner, print as few or as many levels as you like. Includes a wind vane. Spins even in a very light breeze (GIF is from a video shot in 2mph wind)

Mounts on an 8mm threaded rod (mounting blocks included), use one 608 bearing and four M3x16 screws and heat set inserts per spinner. The included spacer will separate layer and keep the nuts on the threaded rods from binding the spinner.

Print in PETG for or better for UV resistance.

made 2, customized the tops to be more traditional weathervane-like. I also had to go with an imperial 5/16th rod as I couldn't find metric. I'll put these up when warmer weather arrives

Printed in dual colour filament with a 0.6mm nozzle, I used a 400x8mm steel rod from an old disassembled 3d printer 608 bearings and M3x18mm bolts and nuts. (not the suggested brass inserts) I also used m8 lock collars to tie everything together, thanks JPP for adding in a mount for rod as well as the threaded version, saved some fiddling. It works really well and now my most favourite piece of wind furniture in the garden.
