Dreamcatcher line from strummol8 have flatter upper side.
which is a good candidate for using ring.

There is gentleman that made 3D print file for Trompos Space Accessories.

Shoutout to him for making great design.

I ask my neighbor to do the thing for strummol8 shape.
He just said "oh okay easy".
My neighbor edit the file in boolean and he didn't save the file.
I'm really sure it is an easy task for everyone that more into 3d printing.
My neighbor said "just come again if you broke it, that file very promising to edit"










Image on the Augusta. Little bit loose which is perfect fit.

I really have no idea about 3d print or making something.

Just change the Internal diameter and height.

Bigger internal diameter to fits the grove on aluminum top cap.

And shorter height, from file it is 1.5 mm, I shorten it to 1 mm just for personal preference because I want the ring light. Instead of make it hollow I choose to shorten the height to lighten the weight.

print in PLA and even PETG the result works just fine for more rigid feel. TPU for more rubbery result which is mimics the trompos space ring. I like it more rigid.

It is awkward to use on classic line (I only have STB and Giulia).

Here, in the US, almost nobody uses the ring. In Mexico everybody uses the ring (for small tops).
Where are you located?

I located in Indonesia.
I broke my first, that people around me named it a, 'freestyle spinning top' at 2008 that I borrow from local yoyo guy.
I broke it at around a week full of playing and it is a bearing king.

nope Bali is 2-3 days by car from my hometown.
sorry cant help.
if you want to go to Bali, please meet a person name Mr. Putu Ardana.
He is the person in charge for every spintop activity in Bali, and he is the man behind spinning a jumbo spinning top with buggy car from the past.

after Bali, of course please visit Lombok.
in fact it is stupid for every spintop related activity to not go to Lombok if visiting Bali.

You can just straight to Lombok if only want to look for spinning top activity.
Local facebook group here is FULL OF LOMBOK PEOPLE, they selling second hand top and even string, seriously they selling second hand string for mother of earth.

I am really sure you will enjoy watching bi monthly local event in Lombok.

there are bi monthly event too in another city,
Riau in Sumatera, Kutai in Borneo, etc seriously it is imposible for me to remember that all.

I know you have whatsapp group, somebody in West Java province told me and I am really sure he will participate for a good reason.

hope it helps :)
