Summary

Fidget toy that makes a fun clicky ticky noise when twisted.

Important:

  • Left and right are different. Keep track of which bulb is which and insert the ratchet the correct way around (R is marked). If it doesn't click, you probably have it backwards.
  • Add a little lubricant to the ratchet. Oil, wax, grease, or soap all work.

The bulbs have smooth and knurled options.

Recommend printing with 5+ shell layers to give the sound a more solid timbre.

Any (non-flexible) filament should work, but the material will affect the sound and feel. My favorite so far is PETG-CF (blue in the photo).

To insert the ratchet, use a twisting motion as you press it in. It goes in quite easily, but does require pressing.
