GlideWave – Slide the Wave. 30min Print.

GlideWave is a smooth, wave‑shaped fidget slider designed for fast printing, clean assembly, and a surprisingly premium feel. The central slider moves through the wave track with a soft, controlled motion — guided by a simple screw connection that locks everything in place without friction or wobble.

The frame and the slider are printed separately and then assembled by passing the slider through the frame and fastening it with a screw. Assembly takes seconds, and the motion is instantly supersmooth.

A small keychain hole is integrated into the frame, so you can carry GlideWave as an EDC fidget or attach it to your bag, keys, or lanyard.

GlideWave is ideal for:

• quick prints
• color experiments
• dual‑color contrast builds
• EDC fidget lovers

• anyone who enjoys a clean, flowing tactile motion

   

🔧 Assembly

• Insert the slider through the opening in the frame
• Add the screw and tighten
• Done — the slider runs smooth immediately

No sanding, no tuning, no tricks.
