<p>The Answer.</p> <p>Also, just having fun trying out a some 3D CAD and printing ideas. More versions on the way.</p> <p>This one : 42 Ball</p> <p>Note : Alternatively consider printing just the "42 hemisphere" - looks interesting sitting on the desk.</p> <p>The idea for a sphere made from two hemispheres screwed together was taken from "schraitle", but I made a new design which uses a bit less filament (and of course has another obvious difference). The nominal diameter of this ball is 65mm.</p> <p>The talon holder shown in the photo is a separate print referenced under re-mixes.</p> <p>OnShape 3D CAD files :</p> <p><a href="https://cad.onshape.com/documents/c1fa2522d715c7f8f9691107/w/9ba97d6a8fb4a550253fda91/e/8212dad756e71772724a8fba">https://cad.onshape.com/documents/c1fa2522d715c7f8f9691107/w/9ba97d6a8fb4a550253fda91/e/8212dad756e71772724a8fba</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Print in PLA using the 3mf files provided. Otherwise :</p> <ul> <li>10% rectilinear infill</li> <li>variable layer height (more layers at the top of the prints)</li> </ul> <p>Note : When removing the "surround" (white parts around the number) be careful about the little piece in the middle of the four- it's easy to misplace. Ask me how I know!</p> <p>Also - the surround pieces are a tight fit, but they will go in with care. Once they are in, you will likely not be able to remove them.</p>
