Notes:

  • You'll need 8x skates.
  • Print at 0.2mm with supports.
  • I have no idea if this actually helps very much, it was just bugging me :)

I recommend using a filament clip along with this print since it uses the usual filament-holding holes as an additional grip for each skate. The one I'm using in the second image is Grandma's Favorite Filament Clip by Extrutim.

The spool holder used in the third photo is the Rolling Filament Stand by hpaulsen

Alternatively, if you're looking to make the rotation of the cardboard spool a bit smoother, try looking into cardboard spool inserts here on Printables.

Additional:

  • Not sure how to flawlessly remove the ‘tolerance-gap’ between each skate…
  • And the individual design of a skate looks a bit too much like the Assassin's Creed logo right now :/
