Description

My son likes a top that he has, and I thought well, i can make one that will spin for a while.

This uses (12) 1/4-20 nuts. I glued all the pieces in with superglue so they don't fall out and the top stops working.

Print the body upside down.

The handle has a 0.2mm X 1" dia brim modeled into it. Just remove it after printing

Also, for some reason Inventor never saves models the the side up that I think should be up. So you will have to turn the model to the right orientation.

UPDATE 10/1/2019: I used a 1/4" screwdiver bit for the handle and it was too heavy and just made the top wobble. So I came up with a printable handle that will be much lighter and should work better.
