3D model description

Planetary Gear with arms that look like a flower and its petals.
It is a mechanism just for fun and to show your friends.

Once it has been printed, push the axle to fix its position. Finally, before turning the gears you may need to unlock them. To do this try moving them in all directions until you notice that they are separated.

Update [11/08/21]: I have added a heart-shaped pieces to place in the center of the mechanism that you can show or hide moving the arms. You can glue these pieces in the center or print them int other colors for a cool effect.
