DISCLAIMER: This is a repost of my contest entry for ring holders on printables. Original link here https://www.printables.com/model/497083-ring-holder-ferris-wheel.
I'd recommend printing both cap types and a back foot + their tolerance test equivalents to ensure everything fits. You can adjust tolerances via the “printer_tolerance” variable.
For the full build you'll need to print:
1-0x tolerance_test_pedal.3mf
1-0x tolerance_test_wheel.3mf
1-0x tolerance_test_foot.3mf
1x base.3mf
1x ring_ferris_wheel.3mf
1x wheel_cap.3mf
2x back_foot.3mf
6x ring_hook.3mf
6x petal_cap.3mf
All models have associated .scad files with the exception of the back foot connection tolerance test. That can be made by changing the dovetail type to “F” in back_foot.scad. The code is a mess and I'm sure some calculations are off but almost everything is customizable. Tinker away!
Update: Fixed calculations for back_foot.scad, updated back_foot.3mf
