About this model

I made this super twisty passthrough as a highly dynamic twist on the classic passthrough design. It is engaging to print and even more enjoyable to use, and the twisting motion makes it especially satisfying as a fidget.

The best part is how the twist changes the feel of the whole piece. A thoughtful color scheme really enhances the look and feel, and the motion stays fun long after the first few twists.

Print settings

  • Infill: 30% or higher for the inner section
  • Perimeters/Wall loops: 2
  • Filament: PLA or PETG
  • Supports: none
  • Brim/Raft: none

Tips

  • Fit: The inner section needs enough density and the right tolerances to move smoothly, so a low infill or a loose fit can make the passthrough feel less satisfying. That is why the inner section runs 30% infill or higher, and why the XY setting below matters.
  • Inner piece XY Size Compensation: For the inner piece, I set XY Size Compensation to -0.35. That replaces the older value of -0.2 on this model's page, and it improves the fit and finish of the print.

My Patreon page is still available at patreon.com/MasterPrinter, but I do not actively update it anymore.
