Description
PolyCore is a modular magnetic fidget built around clean geometry, tight tolerances, and a surprisingly satisfying rotational feel. Each frame nests into the next and rotates independently, guided by a precise magnetic detent system.
Designed for fast printing, multi‑color expression, and full magnet compatibility across 2 mm and 3 mm thickness magnets.
PolyCore is a three‑layer rotating magnet based geometric core:
Each layer snaps into alignment through magnets embedded during a layer pause. No glue. No supports. No calibration tricks.
Just press‑fit precision and a clean, elegant click.
🛠 UPDATE v1.1 (2026-04-23): Geometry Fix for 3mm Magnets
A huge thank you to @Nocho (the legend!) and @Youottanknow for spotting a geometric error in the 3mm versions. You guys are awesome! 🙏
PolyCore supports:
N52-Strength recommended!
PolyCore uses a press‑fit magnet system with a built‑in layer pause. No glue is required — the fit is intentionally tight and tested across 30+ prints.
1) Print the frames with the built‑in layer pause
Your slicer will stop automatically at the magnet layer.
2) Insert the magnets during the pause
3) Resume the print
The printer seals the magnets inside the part. Nothing remains visible from the outside.
4) Snap the frames together
The tolerances are tuned for smooth rotation with a soft magnetic detent.
5) Done — no glue, no sanding, no calibration tricks
