Apple Pass Through Fidget - STL Files for 3D Printing

🍎 Add a little fun to your 3D printing lineup with this playful Apple Pass-Through Fidget! This digital download includes two unique styles so you can pick your favorite — or print both!

This is a digital download only — no physical item will be shipped.

🎨 Includes:
Style #1 – Open Bottom: Apple body (open base) + core + narrow stem.
The core passes completely through the apple for a smooth fidget motion.
Style #2 – Closed Bottom: Apple body (closed base) + core + big stem.
Comes in two versions: one with a note slit (perfect for little messages) and one without.

File Formats: 7 STL files + 1 3MF file (for multi-color printing).

The 3mf file has the following print profiles:
Print Plate #1: Apple body (closed bottom) & core (arranged to print by object), two colors
Print Plate #2: Apple body (open bottom) & core (arranged to print by object), two colors
Print Plate #3: Narrow stem, Big Stem (with slit) & Big Stem (without slit), one color (supports needed on Big Stem pieces)

🖨️ Print Settings (recommended)
Layer height: 0.2 mm
Material: PLA works great
Infill: 15%
Supports: Only needed for the big stem pieces (Style #2)

Approximate finished size: 2 ⅓″ × 2 ½″

💡 Tip: To print in two colors on a single-extruder printer:
(1) Begin the print with red (or green) filament and pause at layer 12 (layer height 2.40 mm) to switch the filament color to white
(2) Print in white from layers 12-235 (layer height 2.4mm - 47mm)
(3) Pause at layer 235 (layer height 47mm) and change the filament back to red (or green) for the remainder of the print

✏️ Note: I tried scaling these up to 120% and down to 80% without any issues (see photo)

🎁 This makes a great teacher’s gift for the end of the year…or the beginning of the year or anywhere in between.
