Description

I was inspired by the recently featured articulated butterfly to design a spinning top that has articulated arms. The butterfly can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2810756 I wanted the spinning top to be easy to print, so it prints in two pieces (the main body/arms and the handle). The main body is printed upside down to minimize support. I also made an interesting comparison of how much it would cost to 3D print vs CNC machine the top, as a kind of “what if” we didn’t have 3d printing. This comparison really highlights how amazing 3D printing is for the home designer. The video can be seen here if you are interested: https://youtu.be/GG7DlSw-DoM Please note that the best way to show your appreciation and keep up to date on my latest 3D printing projects is to head over to my YouTube channel and subscribe! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeQR9E-MPwBqEpuaIJiE4CQ STL quantities to print: Main Body and Arms, Articulated Top {QTY 1x} Handle, Articulated Top {QTY 1x}
