Fidget Gears 3D Print Model

This is a small fidget toy I thought of and tried designing. After a few attempts, I really enjoyed the final product and decided to post it.

If you like fun things to mess around with (that is at least kind of loud), this is the fidget toy for you.

Step 1:

I highly recommend sanding down the 3 pins and the insides of the gears to help with fitting and smooth spinning of the gears.

Fit the pins inside the gears to make sure they spin nicely.


Step 2:

Apply super glue to the three holes on the bottom plate (plate without the designs).
Place the pins inside the holes on the bottom plate. Make sure they go in well and clean up any leftover glue. Let dry.


Step 3:

Place the smaller gear on the middle pin and the larger gears on the outside pins.


Step 4:

Apply glue to the three holes on the top plate (plate with the designs on it).
Carefully set top plate on top of the three pins.


Step 5:

Enjoy!
