Caged ball in octahedron

thingiverse

The structure features parallelogram-shaped beams forming an octahedron. Assemble the ball and octahedron separately for two-colored printing if your printer allows it. Alternatively, print the ball first, pause the job when the octahedron surpasses the ball's height, insert it, then complete the octahedron print. The model was created in Alibre Design with sweeps and extrusions, printed on a Bukobot without support material, requiring minimal cleaning of loose strands.
