My fourth yard spinner (that I've shared). When I went to Walmart to pick up a couple of shafts, they were .310 diameter this time, so that's the hole size. It doesn't have to have the tail, but I wanted this one to be a wind vane too. If you don't want the tail, you don't need the end.
You need the long washer between the hub and the base to have enough room between the CDs and the pole. The short washer is glued to the end to keep it all together. Like my other designs, I drill and pin everything with 4d finish nails. You don't need to, but I don't like the thought of a CD flying off in a strong wind, that's just me. :p
So, if you want to make it exactly as pictured, you need to 3D Print:
1 Base
1 Hub
1 End
1 Long Washer
1 Washer
You also need:
10 CDs (or DVDs) (there are 2 CDs in the tail)
2 arrow shafts (about 2 bucks each at Walmart)
12 4d finish nails
Hot Melt Glue (to cover over the 4d finish nails)
