A spinning top with a party trick: an 80 mm ring sits on three hair-thin spokes around the handle. Once it's spinning the spokes disappear and the halo looks like it's floating. The heavy ring also stores energy, so it keeps going.
DETAILS
• Twist the knurled handle and drop it on a smooth table.
• Prints handle-down with no supports: the halo and spokes lie flat on the bed and the body flares out at 45 degrees. Bambu Studio: 46 min, 13 g, no warnings (a small brim holds the handle).
• For the longest spins print with 100% infill or 6 walls.
