Love Photo Ferris Wheel

❤️ Love Photo Ferris Wheel- A Spinning Story of Memories

This Ferris wheel with photo frames is more than just a decoration- it’s a rotating gallery of memories. Each heart-shaped frame holds a special moment, and the whole wheel slowly spins thanks to a small electric motor.
Assembly takes a bit of effort, but let’s be honest… what wouldn’t you do for someone you love? 😉

It makes a unique gift, a charming home decoration, or an eye-catching display- especially for Valentine’s Day.

🛠 Assembly & Notes

Assemble carefully, following the order shown in the gif:
 

📸 Preparing Your Photos

The project files include a photo template.

• Trace the template on the front side of the photo
• Cut the photos precisely along the outer edge of template
• Well-cut photos will fit perfectly into the heart-shaped frames

🔩 Required Parts

• N20 motor with 150 rpm gearbox (1 pcs) – LA002
• AAA battery holder with PH2.0 connector (1 pcs) – IA004
• PH2.0 to SH1.0 Conversion Wire
• 2× M1.6 screws – to secure the motor

If you don’t have these screws, it’s usually fine- the motor should fit snugly enough to work without them.
It depends on the exact motor you have.

If needed, a tiny bit of glue can help. Literally just a dab- be careful not to damage the motor.

⚠ Important Fit Notes

This project was designed for a tight, precise fit, and everything worked perfectly on my printer.
Keep in mind, though:

• Every printer prints slightly differently
• Filaments vary in tolerances and calibration

Optional tweaks that might help:

• A little glue
• Light sanding

• A drop of any lubricant for smoother rotation

  
  Also available in a manual version without motor, and with round frames instead of hearts.

  UPDATE V1:
  If you had issues printing plate 8, there’s now an additional print profile with the parts merged together. Just separate them after printing.
  
  UPDATE V2:
   -Heart frames have been fixed to prevent stringing.
   

   -Base model updated – changed the text font, as the previous one was highly problematic when printing with a standard 0.4mm  nozzle.
   

   -Added a new print profile for the base without text.
