Description

You may only use this file for personal purposes, and you are not authorized to sell either the file or any printed items derived from it.

If you find yourself printing a large quantity of these items, we kindly request that you consider donating some of the printed Fidget Bolts to your local charities. These donations are highly valued and can serve meaningful purposes in the community.

The Fidget Bolt was originally designed by me as a unique creation for the purpose of selling at a Local Craft Show. Upon showcasing it to my friends and family, they were impressed and encouraged me to make the file available to others. This charming toy has broad appeal, appealing to all ages and personalities, and it's particularly popular among neurodivergent individuals who can play with it for hours on end.

Printing Tips: No Supports Needed!

The Fidget Bolt features an Embedded Loop that can be utilized for attaching a Keychain or Paracord/Rope. It prints in three pieces requires glue to assemble, prints with no supports!

 

The Original Fidget Bolt has been test printed at 60%, 75%, 100% and 200% (See Group Photo). The tolerances (0.6mm) between 75-200% make this operate fine. However if it is not spinning, I suggest twisting it manually until it has sanded itself down. You can also add some Skateboard Bearing Oil or other lubricants to the tread. (Tip try water too!)

 

Print this with a 0.4 Nozzle with 3 Walls and 10% Infill. For a different click and clack print the Nut with Higher or Lower Infills. This File is also frequently used as a Purged Object, I suggest at least 25% if printing as purge.

 

For overall best results I also suggest lowering your Outer Walls speed to 40mm/s especially if printing with Silk.

 

Print it in Glow Filament with a Hardened Steel Nozzle/Gears with a 0.6 Nozzle with 2 Walls and 20% Infill.

I’ve made several of these fidget bolts at roughly 18 inches tall. The last one was just over 4 feet tall. Love the base model too!

Replying to @bucklenshackle :
Pretty good. It was very tedious to get everything aligned properly. The cut connectors helped a ton with that, but are extremely frail. If I make another 4+ footer I’d definitely figure out a way to have threaded connections in between the pieces to strengthen the joints.

Love these! Also, support this designer if you haven't yet, he's got some other really fun designs! But these are great as purge items, and they can get speedy with a bit of any type of help. I have a bunch of graphite dust from derby cars, and that's amazing to help these guys get spinning!

Excellent and with great tolerances. Printed in PETG and PLA, and both equally good.
