UpDraft Air Spinning Top [GalacTop] by Hagster

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

NOTE - THIS SPINNER REALLY DOESN'T LIKE TO SPIN. I AM LEAVING THE MODEL UP HERE AS A REFERENCE. IF ANYONE HAS ANY IDEAS WHY ITS SO BAD THEN PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT. IF YOU NEED SOMETHING THAT WORKS THEN THE 2 LINKS BELOW WORK GREAT.
Another Make_Anything Inspired GalacTop.

This version is designed to redirect the airstream upward for better stability(THAT WAS THE THEORY). The blades of the fan are based on a spherical profile unlike the conical profile of my original. Again the pitch of the blades is highest in the centre and flatter at the edges, just like real aircraft props.
I have seperated the STL files so you can print in dual colour if you have such a machine. It is NOT currently possible to assemble together from separate prints.
For standard single material printers use the UpDraftSpinnerSingle.stl file.
