Print-N-Place Klackers

These are klackers or noisemakers that print in place as one part! They make a great toy for kids but I also find them as a great fidget toy for adults too.  

This a new version which is much easier to print. To have a successful print, most importantly you must have good adhesion to the bed. For the loudest klackers, more walls and infill the better but watch out for curling. If you have issue with curling, enable z-hop, or increase the amount of plastic after the tangency of the balls.

Getting them to Klack
If you are having a hard time getting them to klack I found the easiest way to get them started is to set them flat on a table so the klackers are spread out and as you pick them up off the table whip them back down to make them klack. There are two techniques; the single klack and the double klack as demonstrated here:

The pieces are designed to be printed in “Vase” or “Spiralized” mode. The file is optimized for printing with a 0.4mm nozzle. Printing with different nozzle sizes is still possible but will affect the tightness of fit.

Each piece uses approximately 0.4g of material, making this a great design to use up the scraps of filament you have lying around! A full 1kg roll could print approximately 2500 beads, enough to make a chain 50m (164ft) long!

To connect pieces together, simply pinch the top end of one piece so that the opening becomes oval-shaped. Insert the oval end of the second piece inside and release. The pieces remain connected but can be separated again if needed. Create long chains or rings by adding as many pieces as you want.

Each piece takes approximately 5 minutes to print. It is, however, much more efficient to print multiple pieces sequentially! Setting up spiralized models to print “one at a time” takes a bit of planning as the pieces must be spaced and sequenced properly so that the hot end or gantry does not collide with the finished prints as it moves on to the next print. 

Make the bottom open by setting “bottom layers” to zero. Good build plate adhesion is essential, so ensure that your machine is well calibrated.
