3D model description

Sort of a remix on another simple design I did. (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2206706)

Prints well and takes the standard bearings as the others.

Prints well in PETG and PLA

Caps from 2ROBOTGUY on his nice Tri Fidget Spinner Toy- I added a recess in the top for a finger pad. Big thanks and nice design (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1802260)

If you need some supplies:

Center Bearings: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VKK3I6W/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=athruz-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B00VKK3I6W&linkId=bcd4993a6b91494aa94ea79a48329a05

Bearings: (clean the grease out and use 1 to 2 small drops of the oil below works well. I remove the rubber outer seal and soak in 91% rubbing alcohol for 24 hours)

Outer Bearing: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VKK3I6W/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=athruz-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B00VKK3I6W&linkId=bcd4993a6b91494aa94ea79a48329a05 ($8.29 for 16 bearings)

Great Oil for printer shafts and spinner bearings: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VKK3I6W/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=athruz-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B00VKK3I6W&linkId=bcd4993a6b91494aa94ea79a48329a05 (less is more)

AIO Filament: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VKK3I6W/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=athruz-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B00VKK3I6W&linkId=bcd4993a6b91494aa94ea79a48329a05 (i have honestly had good results with this PLA)

I use the oil in a syringe and add just a drop on the bearing after cleaning with alcohol, on the printer do the same just a few drops per linear rail.I love this oil and it is a five star product in my option as well. Even if you don't use my link you should give it a try.
