Fidget button - cog activated

Fidget button, activated by a cog.

I created this version to allow the button to be extended, as long as desired.

It doesn't have the satisfying click of the Super Toggly Fidget Button, but it's still a fun fidget.

Inspired from:

• Super Toggly Fidget Button by 3d-printy: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4906027

Unit: millimetres.

Printing directive

First, you will need an axel. I recommend using a small strip of 0.7mm steel wire. If you do not have 0.7mm steel wire, you can use a strip of 1.75mm plastic filament.

0.7mm steel wire axel:

• cog-buttons_button.stl x2
• cog-buttons_case_0.7mm-wire.stl x2
