Mini Textured Multi Fidget Cylinder with optional Rotating Magnet Case
I took the pattern from the outside of my fidget sliders, wrapped it around a cylinder, cut that cylinder with small teeth, and then welded 16 magnets into that. The result is the one of most satisfying fidget toys I have ever gotten my hands on! The fit between the teeth is tight enough where they generally want to slide up and down, but loose enough that it can pop out of the grooves and allow a whole new dimension of fidgeting.. The four rows of magnets allow the fidget will be able to open wide without falling off its tracks and then slide back into itself. I run an ironing operation on the last layer of the print so the top is VERY smooth, like glass.
I can print a “case” for anyone interested. It uses 12 more magnets to hold itself together. The cylinder uses the case like wheels, while the cylinder acts like an axel, letting the case spin freely around itself. The magnets are strong enough to hold the case together even when held only from above.
When picking colors, you can pick one, and I will print all 4 sections in that 1 color, or pick two, and I will print half and half.
