45 Record Adapter & Pen holder

What it is

  1. Adapters for 45 rpm vinyl records with a spiraling effect. The 9/32 inch central hole and outer diameter (1.5 inch) are designed without clearance. No worries about the exact fit necessary, the springy nature lets it conform to the axle and vinyl record.
  2. A swirly pen holder. To celebrate this design being awarded, the secondary use case is upped to an additional variant - featuring a conical hole to better suit pens and pencils.

What to print

There are multiple variants awaiting you:

Swirly 01

  • total height 20.4mm

Swirly 02

  • total height 20.4mm

Swirly 02 - RIAA max

  • same, but tighter to vinyl

Swirly 02 - Pen holder

  • does not work as record adapter

Swirly 01 Flat

  • total height 2.4mm

Swirly 02 Flat

  • total height 2.4mm

How to print

Recommended for printing is a 0.4 mm or 0.6 mm nozzle. Layer height 0.15 mm, 0.2 mm or 0.3 mm. Arachne produced artefacts for me, classic worked fine.

A multi color version is just a matter of simple filament changes between layers. In case it won't print neatly after a filament change: A draft shield, wipe tower or any object to consume filament beforehand (establishing good flow by doing so) may help.

To have it spinning the other way round, just mirror the part.

Material at one's discretion.

How it looks

Swirly 02 and Swirly 02 Flat printed with a 0.6mm nozzle at 0.2mm layer height.

Swirly 01 Pen holder printed with 0.4mm nozzle at 0.2mm layer height.
