Identity Disk - V1

𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲: I am currently working on a V2 of this design that features interchangeable blades and lights, as well as requiring very minimal supports. Consider checking it out and maybe printing it. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7188000

Remade https://www.thingiverse.com/metaform3d's Identity Disk from scratch in Fusion360. Uses the whole-ring light insert concept featured in https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6689732, and is intended to use less filament by having less complex overhangs and overhangs in general. Also used an older custom blade design I made in a separate remix. Is designed to use these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07V1TRMMC?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 switches, and has holes large enough for these all-purpose magnets from Harbor Freight: https://www.harborfreight.com/10-piece-rare-earth-magnets-67488.html. Also follows the naming scheme, with the whole disk able to be printed as well as halved versions. I personally recommend painting the inside of the disk white, so that the maximum amount of light is put out from the battery and lighting setup.

𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴! Use low separation (ideally 0.0) between the main disk model and supports for the best results, or expect perimeter lines that are stretched and expose the infill. Also, the disk design featured in the images is a very 𝗢𝗟𝗗 𝗗𝗘𝗦𝗜𝗚𝗡. The newest design will be available.

𝗪𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗽 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝟯𝗗: "From http://glowhut.com/ get two segments of 335 LED strip with 9v connectors: one 20 inches and the other 24 inches. Splice them both into the same power supply with an 8mm push-to-toggle DIP switch to turn them on and off. Place them into the inner and outer light loops. There are holes for two switches (for inner and outer lights) but I just used one."

𝟵/𝟮𝟰/𝟮𝟱 - Made a new design for the light blade, measured to work best with 0.8 (and 0.4) mm nozzles, in order to get clearer prints with transparent filament (no bunching up where the slicer needs to put in a tiny gap filler). Each detailing groove is the same distance from the one besides it. Also made a featureless version of it with no detailing lines. Though, disclaimer, I've still had times where my slicer wants to fill spots it doesn't need to despite these optimizations.

𝟭𝟬/𝟯/𝟮𝟱 - Edited the main disk file slightly, adding some extra space for the internals, magnet spots instead of drill holes for connecting the two halves, and small design-to-print optimizations based on what I dealt with. I also had a GREAT DEAL of difficulty making the switches for the circuit work, as I have no prior experience working on circuits let alone these rather complicated 6-pin DPDT switches, so I instead opted for a very basic method of removing the battery to turn it off. If anyone has any tips on how to make this circuit, please let me know!

𝟭𝟬/𝟳/𝟮𝟱 - MAJOR design updates to disk body and blade, including optional magnet joining of the halves. Uses a total of 18 (6 & 8 + 4) magnets to hold it together for easy opening and battery replacement in the housing (but can still be screwed together). Blade has less holes for better illumination and the supports within the insert ring space are thicker to prevent breaking during intensive processes like sanding and filling. Low profile 2-part backpack design added, dimensions largely from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1083616. And finally, small supports are inside of the blade on the disk part to make film accurate shadows from the lights.

𝟭𝟭/𝟭/𝟮𝟱 - Finally added all half versions of models.
