I saw the metal version of this fidget spinner online, and I decided to make it myself. It is an interesting magnetic toy. The idea originates from the Gobigger Pillbug Spinner Fidget Toy. The metal version is, without a doubt, better, but it is pretty expensive too; I wanted to see what was possible with 3D printing. You will need some magnets and a bearing. PARTS NEEDED12 x Magnets 5x5 mm cylindrical: Bambu Maker's Supply does not have them, so you can find them on Aliexpress or craft a larger magnet from the smaller ones from the Maker's Supply1 x Bearing 8x22x7 mm freely moving: I stole it from an old fidget spinner, but you can deep clean a common skateboard bearing (Maker's Supply or Aliexpress is the way) ASSEMBLYYou will need to cut 6 pieces of filament about 11mm long: straighten a filament section and cut 6 segments with at least one end at 45°, making it pointy. It is possible to make them longer and trim them later, no need for precision now.If you have problems
