Summary

Gears can be spun independently from the center cap (spinning the fidget spinner doesn't spin the gears). Gears will need to be printed at 100% infill for weight. Center pin is slightly longer than the outer pins. I highly suggest coating all contact surfaces (spacers, center caps) with graphite to lower friction. DO NOT print with PETG as the gears like to lock up due to static buildup. I find silk PLA and matte PLA to work best as they seem to have a lower friction coefficient. Parts will need to be glued together. 4 different frames are included. If noise is an issue then I suggest printing the spiral gears as they are much quieter. There are 2 separate spiral gear files because the teeth of each curve in opposite directions.
