Summary

This is a simple toy model of a finger operated flywheel. Simply print the parts, assemble, and start spinning! Although I designed two pedals, I found it challenging to operate both pedals as they are offset by quarter revolution, but the positioning allows the flywheel to be start from any where along its revolution.

Assembly instruction and operation is available here:

Print the following parts and assemble according to the images.

  • Base (1ea)
  • Center Shaft (1ea)
  • Connecting Rod (2ea)
  • Crank (2ea)
  • Crank Pin (2ea)
  • Flywheel (1ea)
  • Pedal Left (1ea)
  • Pedal Right (1ea)
  • Support (1ea)

The parts are locked in place by using a piece of standard 1.75mm 3D printing filament and crimping the edges to prevent the filament from falling out. This is used in place of a screw for ease of part accessibility.
