SpikeRoll Mini - Tactile Spinning Layered Fidget Toy
This is a print-in-place fidget/stim toy that has 3 separate parts which rotate freely. It is covered in a knurled texture that feel good when pressed against the skin. Finally, it has a keychain loop, so that you will never have to worry about losing it!
🎉 Prints pre-assembled and without supports! 🙌 It's print-in-place, meaning it should work right off the buildplate! It is carefully designed with 3D printing in mind, so there shouldn't be any issues with tolerances, overhangs, or first-layer squishing.

Basic Print Settings
- 0.2mm layer height (or 0.1mm, but other heights may not slice correctly)
- 100% infill
- No supports
- No raft/brim
- Designed for 0.4mm nozzles (but should work fine with smaller ones)
Advanced Slicer Tweaks
- Some slicers may require setting the top and bottom layer heights to 0, to avoid weak geometry on thin tapered parts like the center post.
- I had to do this for S3Dv4.
- Requires bridging, which may need to be turned on in your slicer.
- If it still doesn't bridge, make sure there is at least 1 bottom layer in your slicer.
- S3Dv4 also requires at least 1 bottom layer for bridging to occur.
- Make sure your "Minimum Extrusion Length" is set to something small, like your nozzle width.
- The defaults in S3D incorrectly prints the small gears as hollow.
Post-Printing Instructions This print is not delicate, and can simply be rotated/pried off the buildplate without much attention needed.
