3D model description

This project I was inspired by http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:8433.

But I wanted to make an object more dynamic and closer to my needs. With some advanced Bearing 624ZZ me, so I designed this Pencil-holder swivel.

To increase the weight, I created a base with a tank to be filled with sand. In addition under the base I designed two grooves for o_ring seal (section about 1.7 - 2 mm) for more friction.

In reality , the sand and o_ring are optional, but all this makes the pencil-holder very stable, so you can make it run faster :)

For this project you need:

- 2 bearing 624ZZ

- 1 4x60 screw and nut

- 2-6 washers 4mm

optional:

- A bit of sand

- O_ring (section about 1.7 - 2 mm)

3D printing settings

  • Print the parts (support not required)
  • For o_ring (section about 1.7 - 2 mm), the simplest thing is to get a larger diameter (eg 140mm), and cut to the extent necessary to form two rings. Then insert with force. It should not be needed the glue.
  • Fill the tank base with dry sand, a couple of inches below the maximum level.
  • Insert the conical cap, then assemble the whole as shown in the image.
