Description

What self-respecting nerd wouldn't have one of these things lying around? Originally, I wanted it to be solar powered, but I had to settle for AAA batteries. I scavenged the motor and propeller from a 6 in 1 educational solar kit. There's no reason why you can't print your own propeller and use a motor from a cd player or really any motor.

Instructions

Print with 0 infill and no shells. Use drill press to make the hole for the motor. Connect wires, add on/off switch if you want, glue everything up in the beanie. Represent nerdom.

What, no printed propeller! :) I have that kit too! Doing this.

So awesome. I need to print one of these for my baby.

All though very inventive and cool. I can not avow this type of cruelty to animals, I have to whole heartily endorse and encourage it. Very Cool :-P
