Expandable Coaster

-There is a new version of this available on my page

-This Coaster uses a mechanism inside that will allow the outer edge (coloured blue) to be extended outwards and retracted inwards.

-The size starts at 100mm and can expand up to 130mm in diameter.

-The model can be used in many different colourways. The base, the top plate, and the arms are all printed separate can can be coloured easily.

IMPORTANT

Objects labelled V1 and V2 are only compatible with other parts with the same version (Parts without a version listed are universal)

Differences between V1 and V2:

-V2 Arms are held in place much more securely and will not twist out and will have less play.

Assembly

-Place the 6 arms inside the cut-outs on the base with the cylinder shaped extrusion facing upwards

-Place the throw-out plate on top ensuring the holes line up with the arms

-Screw the assembly together with a 4mm Hex screw until it sits flush

Screw will need adjustment based on friction preference, DO NOT tighten it fully.
