Magnetic Levitation Gyroscope - Gyroscope That Won't Fall Over
Print Profile(1)

Description
This is a more basic version of the magnetic levitation gyroscope. This gyroscope cannot truly levitate, but it uses magnetic force to achieve a non-tilting effect.
Why not make it a truly magnetic levitation gyroscope?
1. Using only permanent magnets to make a magnetic levitation gyroscope is theoretically feasible, but it has very poor playability. It often takes multiple attempts, even dozens of times, to succeed once, and it doesn't spin for long.
2. Okay, I won't pretend anymore. I admit I can't do it yet.
Since I only have the a1 mini, not the ams, I can only print in monochrome. If any friends have the AMS, printing it in multiple colors would be much cooler.
Model Description:
1. This gyroscope is divided into 6 parts in total, requiring a total of 35 small neodymium magnets. The magnet specifications are: 10*5*4. You can search for them on Taobao. They are sold for 2.4 yuan for ten, including shipping.
2. The gyroscope handle portion and the gyroscope are a tight fit. You need to press it in with force. If you really can't push it in, you can use a knife to slightly cut off a bit of the skirt at the bottom of the handle.
3. The specific location of the magnets is: 16 on the base, 16 on the bottom of the gyroscope, 2 on the front of the gyroscope, and 1 on the center column of the base.
4. Magnetic assembly method: 16 on the base and 16 on the bottom of the gyroscope are installed with repulsion, while the 2 on the front of the gyroscope and the 1 on the center column of the base are installed with attraction.
