Magnetficent Gear Sphere

thingiverse

It's like the [Pinnacle Gear Sphere](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5987372) but the pins have been replaced by magnets. https://youtu.be/nrLZ2U3JcDY ## Parts - 5x5 Rare-earth cylinder magnets - x64 ## Printing Print everything without supports. All files should be oriented correctly: Parts to print: - Core - x1 - A Gear - x12 - B Gear - x10 - B Gear handles - x2 - C Gear - x8 ## Assembly For each socket in the gears and core, push in a magnet and make sure the polarities are correct. If you want to have interchangeable gears and cores for different spheres, make sure the polarities also agree between them. For extra durability, after pushing the magnets into a socket, put a small amount of superglue in the seams between the magnets and plastic. In the past, I've had the friction fit magnets fall out after leaving the thing in a hot car for couple of hours. Assembly is the same as the Pinnacle and Ultimate gear spheres. ## Caveat Emptor Huge choking hazard. Not for little kids.
