Alternative parts for Umikot - Planetary Gear Spirograph Espresso WDT Tool
These are versions of the Handle and Spin Ring parts without the countersink. This allows the use of non-flathead/countersunk screws. enable support for the handle part, or consider flipping over and use a good brim.
UPDATE July 15, 2023:
- V2rc1 Upper Mech and Spin Ring - reduce lateral play and integrate spin grip
- Release candidate - needs more testing! Mine works great, but let's improve this together!
- Reduced radial forces on the gears help with binding issues
- The V2rc1 Spin Ring is bushing style. Lubricate with some paraffin wax for smooth action
- V2rc1 Spin Ring is NOT backwards compatible with previous versions of the Upper Mech
UPDATE June 3, 2023:
- Added V1.71 Spin Rings. Now includes flange for improved Upper Mech alignment and smoothness, as well as updated handle placement, allowing smoother rotation even under excessive radial loading.
