Summary
This is a variation of a cube fidget, but with spheres instead of cubes (square + sphere = squere). The joints have 0.25mm of clearance, so care needs to be taken to avoid the joints bonding during printing. Using the settings and machine indicated the fidget is a little stiff at first, but will break in quickly. The last two pictures show the support/brim strategy I've found to be most effective in producing the best print with the least break-in required.
I have printed this at 80% scale and it worked well. The smaller size may be nicer for kids and/or more portable.
Constructive feedback is appreciated as I am a newby to 3D printing.

Notes:
Using supports and/or a brim will improve printing, but will make break-in take a bit longer. The best I have found is to use a 5mm brim on the fidget to keep it in place and then manually add some supports under the lower "dog bone" pivot pieces. If you use auto supports in Orca it adds a lot of unnecessary supports that make it harder to break in. See last two pictures that show my brim/support strategy.
