Customizable Segmented Ball and Socket Joint

thingiverse

Create Your Own Customizable Structures for Building and Printing. Build your own poseable structures from scratch using these basic options: * Rows/Columns: Determine how many units to print out. * Ball Radius: Set the radius of the ball in each segment to millimeters. * Neck Length: Specify the distance between the ball and the socket in millimeters. * Fluid Radius: Choose the radius of the hollowed-out section through each segment. * Relief Slots: Adjust the number of slots in the socket - more slots mean easier assembly and disassembly. You can also remove them altogether by setting the value to zero. Take your customizations to the next level with these advanced options: * Socket Tolerance: Control how tightly or loosely your segments fit together. * Socket Ring Pct: Adjust the percentage of the lower hemisphere of the socket to print, making assembly easier or harder. Be careful not to set it too high, as this can prevent parts from snapping together properly! * Separation: Specify the space in millimeters between printed segments. * Slot Width: Set the width in millimeters of each relief slot in the socket. Print Settings: * Supports: None * Infill: 25%
