Parametric Spinner Cap

This is probably the last spinner cap you will ever need :-). The spinner cap was created in openSCAD and all aspects of the spinner can be modified. It can be printed with or without a slot, with or without roundovers on the button, the button size, plug size, and so forth can be controlled. I think about using this with a small screw between the buttons - the screw can be screwed into the plastic, or thread inserts can be used.

There are three sample STLs included but this is only a thought regarding what could be generated by this program. Openscad is free. Download it and modify the button plug until you are happy, then make an STL and see how it prints. The difference in the source between the slotted one and the unslotted one is one parameter. Ditto for the double slotted one.


There is a separate set of preview STLs and a separate openSCAD file that is for attaching your caps together with a screw and a nut where the screw and nut are simply screwed in from the outs
