BALLDOGO Tennis balls organizer, based on #prusament spool

prusaprinters

<p>I designed <b>BALLDOGO</b> to keep my dog tennis balls in one place.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p><img alt="Buddy" height="576" src="https://theveel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/1024_125027.jpg" width="1024"/><br/> <br/><br/> <br/></p> <h3>What do you need, to reproduce this model?</h3><p><ol></ol></p> <p><li><b>3D</b> printer ;)</li><br/> <li>#prusament empty <b>spool</b></li><br/> <li><b>15</b> M3x5 threaded inserts</li><br/> <li><b>11</b> M3x10 screws</li></p> <p><li><b>4</b> M3x12 screws</li></p> <p><li>about <b>20 cm</b> elastic cord (4 mm diameter)</li><br/> &lt;/ol&gt;<br/> <br/><br/> <br/></p> <h3>Any special tools require?</h3><p>You need to remove flanges from back and front spool wall. I used Dremel for that.<br/> <i><b>You will get dirty doing this. Where some gloves, protect mouth and eyes.</b></i><br/> <br/><br/> <br/></p> <h3>How to print?</h3><p>I suggest to use <b>PETG</b> or similar (strong) filament. I used orange #prusament. All elements are <i>supportless.</i>. Any <b>infill</b> about 10% should be fine.<br/> <br/><br/> <br/></p> <h3>Is it difficult to assemble?</h3><p>Most difficult to assemble, are threaded inserts. So you may practice first if you never used them before. For all other you need one Allen Key.<br/> <br/><br/> <br/></p> <h3>Any place for improvement?</h3><p>Sure! I'm planning a release mechanism so your dog can pick up the ball on his own. Maybe a place for extra ball?</p> <p>You have some ideas? Good!</p> <p>I decided to <b>publish the .step</b> files and the <b>source project</b>. You can edit them and use them within the scope of the license visible at the bottom of this post.</p> <p>Due to the size of the project file (70MB) I uploaded it to <a href="https://github.com/kkaleta/balldogo">github.</a><br/> <br/><br/> <br/></p> <h3>Video</h3><p> <figure class="media"> <oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXHavMcnvyU"></oembed> </figure> </p> <p> <figure class="media"> <oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VXHavMcnvyU"></oembed> </figure> <br/> <br/><br/> I'm not a youtuber, but if you found my video interesting, consider<br/> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-6BmY0PQc57owGXbClB5ZA/ ">subscribing to my channel</a> and visit <a href="https://theveel.com">my blog</a> for more projects.<br/> <br/></p> <h3>Thank You</h3>
