Toroidal Fan Launcher | No Hardware | No Support

Launch spinning fans across the room with this 3-stage planetary gearbox powered launcher.

This fully 3D printed toy converts your hand crank input into serious rotational speed through a precision 3-stage planetary gearbox. Spin the handle and watch as the fan accelerates, stop the crank and watch it fly.

Everything snaps together—no screws, no bolts, no hardware needed. Just print the parts and assemble. Pure mechanical fun powered by gear reduction and physics.

Why This Design Is Awesome:

3-Stage Planetary Gearbox - Multiplies your hand crank speed for powerful launches
Snap-Together Assembly - No hardware, screws, or bolts required
Fully 3D Printed - Every component prints on a standard FDM printer
No Supports Required - Clean, easy printing with no cleanup
Hand-Cranked Operation - No batteries or power needed
