This is a cool illusion using a 1 1/4" steel ball bearing and an R8-2RS bearing (½" x 1 1/8" x 5/16" ). The model print settings were set up specifically for dual or tri color filament. The filament used in the pic was Amolen Tri Color - Red, Yellow, Blue. ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D8S78WQG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 ) Also, the orientation of the top ring and main body are in a specific direction to have the colors match when glued. The base of the main body is hollowed out so you are able to glue or epoxy in extra weight so it spins better. I highly recommend this. I had some smaller ball bearings I just superglued in, but you can use really anything. BB's work well.
