Wind spinner inspired by Olympic rings.  

Easy to assemble.  Post and frame go into collar.   Wheels go in color-appropriate spot.  Washers go on each spinning wheel post.  Medal tail goes on the back.

The washers are meant to hold the spinning wheels in place.  They can be tricky to install, but can be installed at the current scale.  If they're giving you trouble, scale them up slightly until you can assemble them.

If you use the post model with the base, you may need to weigh it down to prevent it from tipping over when exposed to wind.

Using 5 colors, you can print most of the small-scale model on one run, except for one of the wheels, which would require a 6th color.   You can print the 6th wheel by itself and swap out the 2nd color with the appropriate missing one.
