Everyone I handed this toy too loved it, but always instinctively started operating it backwards, despite the arrow. 

It felt unnatural to insert the pull rod across the left hand, on the left hand side of the gear. I mirrored the design, so now you insert the pull rod on the right hand side, instead of the left

Since the pull direction is mirrored the rotors also have to be mirrored. Mirrored my fav rotors and included them here too. 

All the rest of the parts download from the original model

  • Axis.stl
  • Bearing_bottom.stl
  • Gear.stl
  • Bearing_Top.stl
  • Pull rod: Pulling_Rod_Ergonomic.stl (adds to the natural instinctive operation)

Other strong pull rod I use is here

Best sounding prop can be found here (mirrored just like the others) 

Thanks to the original designers for their great work!
