Description

Flicket is a super-satisfying fidget/skill toy. Like with a yo-yo, you can do tricks and develop multiple play styles. (See video here)

 

All sizes print in three pieces and need to be assembled by simply connecting the thumb-screws together through the opening in the slide link.

 

Materials and Printing: Infill should be somewhat high to get sufficient weight. 35% seemed to be the sweet spot for PETG, but likely a little higher would be better for PLA.

PLA feels and sounds a bit “stony”, and PETG is quieter and feels a bit more premium to me.

 

Make sure your build plate is freshly cleaned to limit adhesion issues. The first layer contact surface area is low.

 

Sizing: Start with Medium and go up or down from there. Or with your hand in a neutral position with your thumb comfortably extended you can measure a straight line from the tip of your thumb to the first knuckle at the base of your index finger and choose the size closest to but smaller than that measurement.

 

XL 79.2mm

L 72.6mm

M 66mm

S 59.4mm

XS 52.8mm

 

Scaling is not recommended because it can cause issues with clearances.

 

UPDATE 4/3/2025:

As suggested by @the_swest, I have added connectors in all sizes so that multiple links can be connected together, bringing about the possibility of all new tricks. Simply add the connector in between the nut and screw to stack links together.
