I was somewhat inspired by BamBam Design's Sunflower Windmill
2 608 ZZ ball bearings are required
The rod for the holder is simply glued in

Here is another new windmill

I created a small screw adapter on plate 9

Have fun printing

Hello is it normal that the pin where the bearing goes is ø7.5mm and the bearing hole is 8mm? Because this creates two problems: • the two blades have play and remain crooked • the bearing does not fit and therefore the balls do not work but it turns because there is play Let me know

That's strange. The axis actually has 7.8mm and only very little play. The ball bearings don't wobble for me. I've already printed several. The nut also stabilizes the whole thing. Just don't overtighten it. I don't see a nut in the photo yet. I hope it works with the nut. I've printed so many and no one has had a problem with them. Good luck

Replying to @user_2250271949 :

Ok, even 7.8mm doesn't work for the bearing balls because there's air between the printed shaft and the bearing hole. However, assembled as in your photos, there is still air behind, I just printed the spacer between one windmill and another from 12.8mm to 14mm

Replying to @menny96 :

I don't quite understand your problem. It might also be due to the translation. Unfortunately, I don't speak your language. The holes in the ball bearings are 8mm and the printed shaft is 7.8mm. This causes the windmills to wobble on the axle. It's the same for me. You have to screw on the nut at the front, and then the whole thing stabilizes on its own. 350 people have printed this model here and none of them had a problem with it. So it must work. As you can see from the many beautiful photos here.

Printed perfect. Printed the flowers and bees in PETG HF, printed the stakes and halter in ABS. I managed to fit 3 flowers on by reducing. the spacer height, but if the part the flowers slide on to was just a little longer it would really spin :). They have held up in 30 mph winds. In the second picture, a wind gust came through. This has been a great springtime print, I have really enjoyed printing and experimenting with it. Thank you for sharing your work!!!
