This is my take on Andrew Deml's gear fidget. I changed the axel holes in the body to be square, or diamond shaped and made the axels have the same ends. I also remodeled the body to allow for printing without supports. I used a brim on the pins and body for stability but did not on the gears. I recommend the chamfered gears but included the square edge ones if that is preferred
I have added a body piece with more side clearance and a chamfered gear with more clearance on the axle hole to hopefully address issues some people had with the gears not turning freely. I have printed a few that needed to wear in a bit to spin freely and one that had a bit of plastic that had to remove with a file.
The gears in this make are a 40 tooth, 20 degree pressure angle, 32 pitch with a 45 degree helix, if anyone is curious.
