Alliance Spinner

Decided I'd jump on the band wagon and make a couple spinners as well.

I suggest printing in blue and then painting the lions yellow/gold. You could also easily do a color change to yellow for the top .6mm.

You'll want a solid layer just below the lion heads. To do this I set a solid infill layer on for the layer below the lions. This prevents spots like the lion's cheeks from printing above no infill support.

The bearing and the nuts should press fit without any need for glue, as should the thumb grips. If the axle isn't a tight fit for your bearing you can manually scale it up in your slicer (and then trip the buttons with a razor to accommodate the new axle) or add small layers of (tried) super glue and/or paper to tighten the fit.

For the weights I used ~11mm steel nuts, 3 per wing. You can easily add or remove weights to fit your weight preference, just be sure to keep it balanced!

Oh, and be sure to print using supports!!!
