Sliding fidget toy (switch toys)
Print Profile(1)

Description
I found this switch toy (thumb switch fidget toy) while creating a riser for HMJ花喵菌's design. It's a simple but ingeniously crafted and fun toy. I made some modifications to increase its playability, and now it's suitable for a wider audience.
Required Accessories:
1. Six 6mm diameter and 2mm thick round magnets
2. Super glue (for attaching magnets)
Firstly, the original design's magnets were too strong. It wasn't very user-friendly for those with weaker hands (like children). The switching wasn't smooth, and it could even pinch the skin (I got pinched myself 〒▽〒). So I replaced the original D6*3mm magnets with D6*2mm magnets, reducing the magnetic strength for smoother operation.
Secondly, I added a circular slider, which enhances the toy's playability.

(Three-section toggle)
The magnets can also be rotated if their height is suitable.

(Fixed point rotation)
To accommodate the three-section toggle's circular slider, I adjusted the magnet positions on the base. However, this doesn't affect the original two-section slider. You can print both and switch them whenever you want.
The magnet installation holes are 6.15mm in diameter. You might need glue to secure the magnets, depending on the material. I made two myself, one with glue and one without. They are equally strong and there's no difference.
This is my third day using a 3D printer, and this is the first model I've uploaded. Feel free to leave comments and suggestions.
Finally, thanks again to HMJ花喵菌 for the original design and his riser, they are awesome!
