A great tactile fidget that can be easily modified and added to just by tweaking print settings and adding shapes and colors. 

My daughter wanted to make her own fidget so we got to work on Tinker cad. It is designed to be printed on single color printers using basic PLA. Just print the square hoops and balls first in any quantity and color you want and then the main body. You will need to pause the print prior to it printing the upper chamber in order to place the hoops on the body and the balls within the body.

We printed the outer body in PLA so the balls inside can be seen. The outer skin could probably be printed as fuzzy for more sensory engagement if you wanted and you can use more layers on the top compared to the bottom to get different tones when banging on the top and bottom sides. 

The only thing you will need to make sure is your printer will handle the bridging on the top layers of the body and you can scale up or down depending on your printers capabilities. 

The only post processing you should need to do is run a de-buring tool around the top and bottom as the profile can be sharp with some filaments.
