Rubber Spinner
Description
My son and I have been making fidget spinners out of rubber. We use a 3d printed mold with a PLA skeleton suspended inside. For the spin we use a skateboard bearing with a wooden dowel through it, then we put TPU caps on the ends. So, parts for this are: - Skateboard bearing (cleaned/lubricated) - Wooden dowel (8mm x 30mm long) - Hot glue to seal the seam on the mold - 30A silicone rubber (platinum cure) We printed everything at .8mm width and .4mm layer height on a .6mm nozzle. Hopefully it should work on other setups. I made a short video about these spinners: https://youtu.be/9CUuZ-kEUHU The file that ends with "MOD" is a modifier mesh for playing with slicer settings just within the outer rings of the skeleton. Check out the video for details.
