I am hoping to find someone who can assist me in printing some fidget spinners. Maybe up to 10 of them. I bought 4 of the DMS gyro things and gave them away. Now my girlfriends boys think I have the 3D printer connections to make other interesting things. I am a woodworker and really have not ventured off into other areas of the space. I travel a lot and am out of town for the only 3d printer class on the schedule. Anyone interested in helping? I can offer trade of woodworking assistance or am certainly willing to pay. I can order the bearings. I believe the link below will get us what we need to print them but I am completely ignorant of how it works.
I’ll be at the space tomorrow evening, teaching a couple classes, but I may be able to print one off for you and see how it goes

How many do you want? I can print in either black or white. Which would you prefer?

I created the DMS Gyros and I’m glad you liked them. I’ve seen the fidget spinners but I haven’t tried printing one yet (I tend to prefer the gyros) but if you want some help with them (or just want someone to print and assemble them), hit me up through PM and we can talk about it. I’ll be up at the Space later tonight.
I also have some gyros available without DMS branding that have much better spinning action and spin almost silently (I had to degrade the gyro model a bit to get the DMS logo onto them). You can find them over here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/485132456/3d-printed-spinning-gyro-awesome-3d

I have four printing (OP Link), in white ABS, right now. I will bring them with me to the space tonight, if we don’t run into each other, I will put them in my personal storage box and you can grab them when you can.

Yep, I’m aware they’re out. I’m printing more now and should be up at the Space on Saturday. I’d throw the STL and GCODE up on the member server but printing them requires fine-tuning the Z height (it doesn’t need to be off by much for it to not spin very well), which isn’t something that regular members are allowed to do. I provided the STL and GCODE to @axeonos (3D Printing Committee Chair) but I’m not sure if the files got put in the committee folder or the member drive somewhere.
