This is a 298 mm fidget spinner with a working bearing and hand holder downsized from the 1 meter fidget spinner I created. This one is meant for the main fidget body to be printed in one piece on a 300 x 300 mm printing bed. This one is also meant to be 100% PLA and put together without any glue.
All of the instructions and hints on how to print the giant 1m fidget spinner are still applicable to this smaller version. You can rotate the main body a little to give the object a little more clearance around the edges of the 300 x 300mm bed. Make sure to read the hints from the source thing. This one is a little tighter when spinning at first but over time it loosens up. I recommend printing the bearing parts at 30 mm/s and 1 at a time (except the balls) to minimize flaws in the walls by going slower and also cause less artifacts in the wall with the nozzle not needing to move to other areas to print more objects.
In this smaller version I printed 3 extra outer bearing races and put them in the empty holes around the bearing to make it look nicer.
