Wind vane Pumpkin Cat - 608 Bearing Remix

This is a remix of the original Wind vane Pumpkin Cat, modified to use 608 bearings instead of 625 bearings.

Modifications made:

• Shaft enlarged to 9mm diameter for use with M8 bolt
• Pumpkin holder modified: thickness increased to 25mm to fit 608 bearing
• Cat holder modified: thickness increased to 25mm to fit 608 bearing
• Bearing openings adjusted for 608 bearings (22mm outer diameter, 8mm inner diameter)

Hardware needed:

• 2x 608 bearings
• 1x M8 bolt (90mm or 100mm length recommended)
• M8 nut

All four files have been modified to be compatible with 608 bearings.

Differences compared to original: Changed from 625 bearings to 608 bearings due to availability. Modified shaft diameter and holder thickness to accommodate the larger 608 bearings while maintaining the original design functionality.

Modified to use 608 bearings instead of the original 625 bearings. Changes include:

• Shaft diameter increased from 5mm to 9mm for M8 bolt compatibility
• Pumpkin holder thickness increased to 25mm (to accommodate 608 bearing depth)
