3D model description

This fidget toy is great as anti-stress or anti-anxiety tool.

Experts say fidgets can help people concentrate, improving focus and lowering distraction to external factors.

Others may argue they are simply fun :)


To make this toy you will need the following:

Non-printed parts and tools:
  • Two M3 x 3 threaded brass inserts

  • Two M3 x 6 screws (we used button socket head screws - or pan head socket screws)

  • Two 625 bearings.

  • Soldering iron to heat up the brass inserts.

Printed parts

You need to print one of each gear, one base, and two inserts.


Printer settings

Depending on your printer's tolerances and settings, you may need to scale either the inserts and/or the gears to fit with the bearings and the screws ;)

Avoid using brims as they will interfere with the gear's meshing.

3D printing settings

  • Layer height: 0.2 mm

  • Supports: No

  • Infill: 10%
