Model Overview & Print Notes
Summary
Check out my updated miniaturized version of the Bolt Action Fidget over at: Bolt Action Mini
Bolt Action Fidget
A fun fidget toy, inspired by the bolt action of a hunting rifle. Designed by myself in Autodesk Fusion. Open to feedback and suggestions, feel free to comment and let me know what you think!
Assembles by sliding the 'bolt' piece into the 'case' piece with the "M" logo side of the bolt closest to the cut away slots on the case. Then the 'handle' piece screws into the threaded hole in the 'bolt' piece. If correctly assembled it should be perfectly flush, with only the handle sticking out when the mechanism is closed. Refer to the pictures posted for the correct assembly.
You may need some supports on the case and the inside threaded section of the bolt, but depending on how well your machine handles overhangs it could print fine as is.
The tolerances are fairly tight so you might need to scale down the bolt and handle pieces depending on how calibrated your machine is. It prints very well as is with a mostly stock Elegoo Centauri Carbon, with some tree supports on the case and bolt.
