Dreadnought Fidget Spinner by ProteanMan

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

The Dreadnought is an all enclosed Fidget Spinner. It has the option of an 11mm or 14mm bearing. These are smaller bearings than the standard spinner types. The bearing size must be 5mm thick with a 5mm inner bore. The other diameter can be either 11mm or 14mm. Just look at the .STL files for the correct pair.
The weights are standard M8 nuts. AMERICANS... you can just search that online for the imperial conversion size.
Because the bearings are smaller than the typical 608 bearings they won't spin for as long. This is meant to be an all enclosed spinner that just looks really amazing!
