A fake lighter with a fully functional wheel that spins to convert rotational movement into linear movement in order to turn an LED on and off. This seemed like a pretty good opportunity to work with some gears and mechanics, but keeping things small proved to be quite difficult. Apparently, it also turned to be a pretty interesting fidget toy with the audible clicks when you open and close the case. I have printed this in several different types of PLA (Basic, Matte, Metal) and they all work well. This model has some tight tolerances, so i wanted to be sure the vast majority of people would be able to make it work. Another issue I had to consider was the variable sizes of the magnets that come with these LEDs. I measured magnets heights from 2.4mm to 2.6mm, so the slide was designed to handle these variable heights. I highly recommend using the print profiles I have provided. I have printed a lot of these as prototypes and found the provided settings to work best. Enjoy! Troubleshooti
