Most of the STL files are really straight forward to print. All you need to do is load them into your slicer software (I use Cura), select your desirable settings (e.g. layer height, infill percentage, etc.) and slice the parts. I used 0.4mm nozzle 0.2mm layer height to print all parts for this model

So now you’ve got all your parts printed? Great! Let’s assemble the model!

This model is super simple (yet impressive) to assemble. However, before we start, you’ll need to purchase some super glue and magnets to put this model together:

• 5 mm dia x 3 mm thick N42 Neodymium magnets (LINK) | Qty: 14-off
• 10 mm dia x 2 mm thick N42 Neodymium magnets (LINK) | Qty: 12-off
• Deep Groove Ball Bearing: 17mm I.D, 35mm O.D, 10mm R.W (LINK) | Qty: 2-off
• Super glue (LINK) | Qty: 1 bottle
