Gear Sphere puzzle (failed project)
thingiverse
This is a twisty puzzle. I'm not satisfied with, so I mark it as failed project. Now, I will not continue this project. How it works: rotate the color segment rings (independent). Flip the black and white halves. What is the problem: Gears jumps off sometimes. (change the bevel angle of the gears) Colored rings stuck together sometimes. (make a support layer between (fixed to the black and white). gear ratio is not good adjusted to segment size -> use 60 degree segments how to make one: There are STL files of a normal version (to big) and a 80% downscaled version (see photo) I have printed: gear1small: black and white, 2 each gear2small: 4 colors, 2 each gear3small: 4 colors, 4 each I recommend to print: gear1small: black and white, 2 each gear2small: 6 colors, 2 each gear3_60degsmall, 6 colors, 2 each. how to assemble: check my other rotating puzzle projects.
