Alternative and likely stronger version of the pegs for PaintSpinner https://makerworld.com/en/models/1682616-paint-spinner-aka-vortex-mixer The pegs are designed to be printed horizontally on their side, which improves their toughness. Although this can negatively affect how freely printed bearing can spin. But spinning them for few minutes after assembly seems to smoothen them out. Also adding drop of lubricant oil between bearing and peg crevice can help. This variant requires using a filament strand to lock them in sun gear shaft slots. Comes with customizable Fusion files in case regular print files tolerances are off with your filament. The customization affects only “tolerance” parameter - so it should be changed very slightly (by 0.02 or more radically 0.1 step). Positive values will increase size (eg. increase distance, diameter, width etc.), and similarly negative will decrease it. Pegs and bearings are fast to print and don't take much material, so they're easy to experiment
