Description

PDF

This Minifigure display uses empty filament spools and Ikea Variera rotating tray.

Print two base plates per filament spool and glue them in place. For a larger display, glue multiple filament spools on top of each other.

For smooth rotation, I have used Ikea Variera “lazy Susan” rotating tray. Print one Variera insert to fix the filament spool to the tray. The insert has a loose fit (about 4 mm allowance - 2 mm all around); scale up, if you want a tighter fit.

Base plate:

  • No supports
  • No infill
  • Print time about 45 minutes

Variera insert

  • No supports
  • No bottom layers
  • 10 % infill
  • Print time about 8 hours
