Color:

KWOB // Chamfered + Sloped + Ripple Rotate the two halves of this twisting KWOB and move the marbles along its shifting track to rearrange them until all like colors touch. Arrange with 11 balls total, 5 of color A, 5 of color B, and 1 of color C. KWOB has been designed for use with 14mm ABS or Acrylic no hole beads (actual diameter is ~13.6mm).  Glue in 8 6mmx3mm (1/4"x1/8") neodymium magnets for a smooth and satisfying snap between positions. The magnets should fit snugly in the holes and you may need to use a flat surface to press fit the magnets flush. I also use E6000 craft adhesive to make sure the magnets are absolutely fixed in place. I like to use ABS filament for the clips for longevity, but I've also used PLA prints with no issues yet. Add beads, then use the clip.stl to snap the two KWOB halves together to securely join the puzzle.

Enjoy the puzzle and leave a tip if you'd like to support my ongoing work :)

Hi, I'm Devin! I run a YouTube channel called Make Anything and I believe everyone should have access to well designed products. As it turns out, 3D printing is a great way to do just that! I like making both functional models and delightful objects that spark inspiration.
