Ball in a cup

thingiverse

The 1958 FIFA World Cup football championship was held in Sweden's Stockholm, Rasunda. Brazil emerged victorious against Sweden with a score of 5-2 in the final. A Swedish petroleum company utilized this event as an advertising gadget by distributing this ball during the tournament. It seemed like a perfect item to recreate using a 3D printer after 56 years. This simple yet fun object is especially relevant now, considering the World Cup 2014 takes place in Brazil. Additionally, it makes for an excellent gift. Customize it further by adding labels with your company logo, website or any other design of your choice. Feel free to modify this idea based on your preferences. To create this game, print the ball as a solid piece or two halves that are glued together. Drill a hole at the bottom of the cup and attach a 40cm long string with a knot in the cup's base. Tie the ball onto the string and attempt to get it into the cup; aim for best of 10 rounds. Good luck! If you want to create your own, use these dimensions: cup - 23mm diameter, 31mm height, with a thickness of 1.5-2mm, and ball - 17mm diameter.
