【Bidirectional Segment Damping】Ball-bearing Fidget Slider V2 Two-way Push Purely 3D Printed No Additional Accessories no supports

Highly Recommended: Best Fidget Toys

Please review the following instructions thoroughly before printing：

This is a purely 3D Printed fidget push card toy (video demonstration below), improved from the previously popular ball-type fidget push card, the main changes are as follows:

• Can be pushed in both directions, the number of ball bearings reduced from 5 pairs to 4 pairs, and the number of detents for the full stroke increased from 4 to 6
• Size further compressed, width reduced, and multiple areas of the design have been rounded, effectively avoiding situations like pinching or catching fingers when pushing down
• Provides two sets of profiles, tight fit and loose fit, improving consistency of feel between different materials

Notes:

• Due to the different sinkage rates of various materials, the clearance may be too large or too small I have provided two sets of profiles, tight fit and loose fit, to accommodate most materials In addition, you can further fine-tune the size of the ball bearing holes by adjusting the “X-Y inner contour compensation” in Bambu Studio to achieve a more perfect match The ideal state is: the ball bearings can rotate, but there is no sound when shaken.
• This toy becomes smoother the more it is played with If the initial feel is not smooth (mainly due to uneven resistance caused by printing seams), it will improve after playing with it for a while If the ball bearings do not rotate smoothly, you can pinch them with your fingers and forcefully turn them a few times until the resistance decreases.
• Some materials have high inherent friction, which can lead to a rough feel and difficulty in pushing In such cases, a small amount of lubricating oil/grease needs to be applied to the friction contact points.
• Before printing, it is recommended to level the heated bed, clean the build plate, or apply adhesive to achieve better bed adhesion.
