Description

Wind Up Propeller Shooter:

Short Action:

https://youtube.com/shorts/P0-LOdPc8HE?si=d5uC_NPGPlzFWW9c

You simple wind it up and shoot it like a pistol!

I came up with the idea, because of my youngest couldn't start the rack&pinion launcher.

With the wind up model i can help him to start the propeller.

 

All Parts are printable, no need for other tools or screws and no glue is needed for assembly.

Simple press fit the parts together and have fun.

 

I was very impressed that one single rotation lift the propeller that height.

Some features:

  • Wind-up toy. Only one revolution is required to reach a flying height of >5m
  • A trigger like a pistol release the propeller.
  • Comfortable Handle with good grip through fuzzy skin.
  • All Parts are printable, no need for other tools or screws and no glue is needed for assembly.
  • I added a “Phillips cross slot” on the shaft, which is compatible to my Kids Workspace - Philipps Screwdriver. With this, the little ones can wind-up themselves
  • The propellers are basically the ones from Brent Peterson Toroidal Launcher Mini Rings(100mm), i made them a bit lighter/smaller, and they fit now from both sides. But the originals work as well 😉 I do that compatibility because i don't want to have more different propeller lying around and this way i can honor his great work👍
  • If you have already printed out my Wind Up Propeller Launcher before, you can convert it into the shooter by printing the “lid” and “trigger” part. It's compatible with each other.

Printing:

You can print all parts with PLA but i recommend to print the spring in PETG for better wind-up.

But feel free to use any material you have lying around and share your knowledge.

All parts are designed to print without support.

Only use a brim on the shaft.

 

Happy Printing & enjoy the free parts. I spent a lot of time to design and test and use a lot of plastic for trying out. If you give me a like and a follow, it's worth it. 😉👍

Assembly:

 

Changelog:

 

V1.05 Added “Wind Up Helper” tool and a nice pocket on the grip to store it

Nice design - my daughter is loving it. However, while printing the lid, some parts weren't printed - they appeared "hollow" in the slicer (yellow parts). Any idea, how to fix this?

All fine! The Yellow parts are only modifier blocks, to ensure that there is no fuzzy skin. In the trigger compartment, axle hole and "wind up helper" box we need smooth surface :)

Printed just perfect. BTW, toroidal props from your models flying better, if they printed halh-hight. Just cancel printing on 65-70 % and test :))

Ein schönes Spielzeug für Kinder. Einfacher Druck für großen Erfolg. Wenn ein Propeller zu Bruch geht ist schnell Ersatz gedruckt.
