Push-push Mechanism

A simple push-on-push-off mechanism that uses a standard ballpoint pen spring. Seems to work well when printed in PETG.

There are now 3 models:

  • The basic mechanism
  • A slightly improved mechanism with an actuator arm
  • A mechanism with a lightweight enclosure for use as a click fidget
  • One with a more robust enclosure, plus M3 mounting tabs for attaching to larger projects
