Belt Buckle - Roller Coaster Style

Belt buckle in the roller coaster style, fitted for a 1.5in~37.5mm wide belt.

Requires a metal compression spring acquired separately that does not exceed 6mm diameter. I pulled my springs from a spring assortment kit bought online, but you can probably find springs lying around as long as you can get two identical. For reference I used a 5.5mm diameter spring with an uncompressed length of 15mm. Assembly makes use of two quarters/coins(is it more likely someone has quarters or a screwdriver at home? \_(ツ)_/ )

If you are having trouble finding metal springs try this other model that is entirely 3D printed:

This version is “Belt Buckle-A002”

There are three variations separated into different folders: 

• “Buckle(3pin-1hole)” = Has 3 bolts and only 1 hole which requires you to sew a loop on belt. This is more or less the default configuration.
• “Buckle(3pin-1hole)” = Has 3 bolts and 2 holes on both sides, no sewing required.
• “Buckle(2pin-1hole)” = Only 2 bolts and only 1 hole.

Build instructions are included in a pdf file.
