Description

A twist on the hand carved, wooden ball in a cage that I remember making a long time ago. Removing the support structure brought back memories and skills from carving, too.

Instructions

I had the best success using ReplicatorG since the support structure holds the ball in place during printing. Be prepared to spend a few minutes cleaning up the model as there is a lot of structure to remove. This print was made with white PLA.

I printed this in PLA with replicator 2 and the ball moved throughout most of the print messing up the ball. I will post a picture soon. Any recommendations to improve the print?

Try using ReplicatorG software at the 0.27 mm layer default settings. The support structure is much better than MakerWare.
