Description

Have fun with this Mark II discrete (as in discontinuous) fidget ring! If you like the standard fidget ring, the dual fidget ring, but would like to have something more functional, this is it. The internal structure of the ring makes it stop only in 16 directions, showing a specific number from 1-8 through both windows (both on the upper and on the lower half of the ring, so they are easy to find).

In this crosssection you see that all numbers are available twice, on opposite sides of the ring. This way, the holes in the ring will show always the same number.

So you can use the ring to generate random numbers or as a replacement for a 12-sided dice. Also it feels quite different to spin and creates a little rattling noise when spinning.

In case you want to customize things, please install OpenSCAD on your own computer and follow these instructions to customize your ring.

Thanks go out to ixpatch for the idea to create a “dice ring”. He has great print-in-place designs to explore! Thanks also go to aubenc for the knurledFinishLib_v2.

If you could take a picture of an actual print, please “add a make” and attach the picture. - I am curious to see your uses in the wild! Please let me also know how you rate the design.

And see the “promotion video” of the other three fidget rings ;-)

Unfortunately, the uber fidget ring was deleted due to a design claim, so its no longer available.

If you like it, you can check out  the original print-in-place fidget ring:

Also have a look at all my customizable creations. 
There are more configurable-text-based creations, multi-line label, gadget display stand, sweeping name plate, bunting banner, customizable text box III, pyramid text, name plate, Customizable text box with lid and round text. Have also a look at my configurable pack of dogs, rabbits, reindeers and santas. There are also useful coat hangers and finger toys.
The filament swatch is nice to have an overview about your filaments available.

Print instructions

No support is needed. Other standard settings will be fine, like infill of 20%, layer height of .2mm, 2 perimeters. 

At the end, turn the rings a few times to make them spin better.
