These bearings have some pretty tight tolerances so I would recommend not deviating from the provided print profile.&nbsp;The settings included are:<ul style="list-style-type:disc;"><li>0.16mm High Quality BBL Profile</li><li>Random Seam Position</li><li>Contour Scarf Joint Seam</li></ul>The latter 2 settings prevent a dominant seam bump locking up the bearings

All variants at 0.16mm high quality

These bearings have some pretty tight tolerances so I would recommend not deviating from the provided print profile.&nbsp;This profile is significantly faster than the high quality one, but spinners may be a little more jittery and may need a good few spins to loosen up properly.&nbsp;The settings included are:<ul><li>0.2mm Standard Quality BBL Profile</li><li>Random Seam Position</li><li>Contour Scarf Joint Seam</li></ul>The latter 2 settings prevent a dominant seam bump locking up the bearings

All variants at 0.2mm standard quality

UPDATE:some updates regarding feedback. now you can print multiples cause all the parts are merged….Flushing volumes and prime tower are turned of… no need for them….Noticed that some of users had snag on certain positions when spinning. There are comments on all printing profiles about this. After a check i saw that z seam is the reason. so changed it to random. on addition i scaled only the gears at 99% on x and y axis only…. Even faster, even stronger now….&nbsp;this is printed with 4 walls.dual color!if you see in the slicer the 4 walls make the walls of the outer ring touch together . this make the print really strong.In addition with 4 walls the gears are printed on 100% infill!In addition you have only 2 color swaps with zero flushing volumes and no prime tower!All that for even faster print with the extra draft 0.28 bambu profile!Almost an hour and a half for this beauty….30mm/s for the first layer.use your filament profiles to succeed and keep your bed clean…..Thanks to the designer for this!

I hand painted these on both the gears and the inlaid outside walls for a very cool effect. The fidget spinner is also grouped together, so you can safely make duplicates of this with the gears remaining in place (no need for assembly!)

Print this fidget spinner in 2 colors without AMS. Pauses added so you can manually swap out the colors.

increased infill of 80% at the edge of the ring so increased weight, which makes for a more satisfying spin

I changed it to use four different colors to take advantage of the AMS. Obviously it is recommended to print multiple at the same time if you are wanting to use less filament.

<h3>Planetary Gears Fidget Spinners</h3>My take on the famous fidget spinner - easier to hold as you can slip it on 1 finger.No assembly required, it is print-in-place and will work off the bed.&nbsp;There are 6 different spinners in the print profile, which is a combination of different size, style and number of gears.<figure class="media"><oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/E9KdtME5_U8"></oembed></figure>
