Hardware:

1x 5mm ID, 14mm OD, 5mm Depth bearing
 



Print in any material. PLA/PETG works well (I used PETG)

reduce stringing as much as possible; imperfections left by strining may interfere with the swatches, causing them to get stuck on the way down

TPU 95A swatches works fine, but softer TPU is more prone to getting bent inside the mechanism causing it to seize.
 

Swatches in Bambulab's 80 piece pack may not be the same since the models creation. Consider printing without text. 


You may want to glue the bearing to both sides to make sure the spinner doesn't fall apart upon picking up.



80 slots for bambu swatches + 20 extra slots

The UV Protector is included to cover tops of swatches to prevent uv light from slowly discolouring samples. Additionally, it can be used when transporting the spinner (especially if moving house, or moving from a college dorm to home.) If used for transportation, use tape that does not leave a residue (like kapton tape) and tape down the disc. Additionally, you may want to print a carrying tray for transport

*Small safety note: spray paint the CF swatches with a clearcoat, otherwise the carbon fibres will get embedded in your skin. (This should be done on ALL cf prints.)
