Satisfying Modular Expandable Fidget Toy (assembly is required!)Look for assembly instructions below!There are several other expandable fidget toys out there but they all require an AMS if you want to print them with multiple colors (print in place), and none of them feature a modular system that allows you to interlock multiple layers to create an expandible cylinder shape, and that is what drove this idea. There are 2 sizes small and large, but you can scale it up or down (I don’t recommend going much smaller than the small size or the wall thicknesses are too small).Watching this fidget expand and contract repeatedly is an addictive and hypnotic experience due to its geometric shape that expands from a flower shape to a ring shape.Features:No AMS required, simply print each piece in your color of choice and assemble.No supports neededSmall size prints in 40 minutes with only 5g of filament!Large size prints in 1.5 hours with 35g of filament!Small fidget measures 2” [51mm] when colla
