This fidget is smaller than my similar larger fidget. This one fits more easily in your pocket. Carry several in your pocket and pass them to friends or anyone you meet. It compresses with your finger or thumb and returns to the extended position with two opposing 20 mm magnets glued within. The design calls for a 1 mm clearance between the two parts.
Unlike the similar larger fidget, this design does not include a pin and slot that prevents the two parts from separating easily when turned upside down.
Vladmier Murano, Desktop Makes, provided the original design approach several years ago. He printed similar hexes using vase mode. To improve wear characteristics, I designed with walls 1 mm thick.
Fifty 20 x 5 mm magnets are available from Amazon for under $8 today.
I used super glue to adhere the magnets to the prints.
