Lizard Eye Fidget

Spin it! Flip it! Poke it! Shake it!

My first makerworld model ever!

I was working on a different concept when I printed this as a test. I ended up playing with it quite a bit and thought maybe others would find it a fun little fidget as well. Each model requires less than 25g of filament and between 45min - 1 hour to print. It is small enough to fit in your hand and be printed on the smallest of printers. However it is also infinitely resizable if you so desire. I have included 3 plates with 3 different versions, the first is the original eye where the smaller inside rings will free gyro and the outer rings will follow. Plate 2 has the second iteration with a small handle to really control the lizard eye effect without the handle colliding with the outer rings. I have also included a version with a longer handle to really shake things up (pun intended). Each was printed on my Centauri Carbon in Kingoon tricolor silk PLA on a supertack cold plate. 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height, no brims, 2 walls (sparse infill % doesnt matter as there is no sparse infill). If you are not using a supertack plate, it might be beneficial to turn on the brims, but it should have no issues adhering when printing in PLA. Printing without brims keeps the motion of the fidget super smooth.

If you enjoy this fidget I would love to see your print!
