Spinner for a Clickity Clock

No

.2

• The Pointer must be printed with 100% fill. This is due to the counter balance weight being calculated to move the center of mass to the pivot point of the spinner. Printing at another fill percentage will cause the pointer to be nose heavy.
The remaining parts can be printed at 20% fill.

Assembly

Parts to complete:

Qty 1 - M5 x 16mm screw and nut

Qty 2 - M3 x 10mm screws

Qty 3 - M3 x required length to fasten to clock. These screws fasten through the mounting washers, through the clock material and into the spinner base. The holes in the base are 4mm deep and sized for M3 screws to cut their own thread.

No one said that Clickity Clock is only for the kids.

Optional Clicker

The clicker is a small piece of smooth flexible rod. I experimented with several materials.

• PLA - Worked for a short period of time (about two dozen spins) and then broke.
• PETG - Worked but broke sooner than PLA.
• Wire insulation - Jammed the spinner, too flexible.
• Piano wire - Couldn't find any of the right thickness that would work smoothly. (This doesn't mean that there is not a thickness that will work, but that I didn't have any in my junk box.)
• Extension nozzle from WD-40 spray can - Success.

The clicker will need to be glued into the base and trimmed to engage the underside of the pointer. Adjust so that it clicks but does not cause excessive drag on the spinner.
