This Gears Multicolor Animated Fidget Spinner is designed to be printed as a multicolor print using the AMS, but can be printed using layer swaps or just as one solid color.
Important note about viewing the spinner animations:
This fidget spinner is unlike a standard spinner. The shapes on the spinners are actually frames of animation. When you spin the spinner and view the spinner through a smartphone camera, the animations come to life. There are also two other ways to view the spinners. The instructions are below for the 3 different viewing methods.

Bearing Requirement IMPORTANT NOTE:
You will need one r188 bearing for each spinner you make. The links below are the best bearings we have found and tested for our spinners. However if you cannot get one of these in your country, there is an alternative bearing listed in the Bambu store under bill of materials. Only get these if you cannot get the Amazon Bearings. The Bambu bearings will work, but the spin time is not as long and they are slightly more expensive.
