Easy and Quick print Pokeball Pokemon

thingiverse

I've been wanting a simple and quick print Pokeball for a while now, and unfortunately, I wasn't satisfied with anything available on Thingiverse. The models they offered were either too complicated or didn't look good at all. TheDesignerd's spinner had beautiful looking Pokeballs with a clean design that really caught my eye. I decided to take his model and simplify it by removing the unnecessary parts of the spinner, leaving only the Pokeball itself. The button remains unchanged, but the center piece was significantly simplified, turning into a basic cylinder. To accommodate this change, the hemisphere was cut in such a way that allows the center to fit seamlessly inside. If you're looking for a better visual representation, I recommend checking out TheDesignerd's spinner as it features Pokeballs that look much nicer than my version. Since the proportions remain the same, my model should print similarly when printed at full size. I made an estimate of the dimensions and found that this Pokeball is approximately 40mmx40mmx45mm in size. To achieve a more realistic appearance, I suggest printing it at double the original scale. As for the printing time, each hemisphere takes around 15 minutes to print (remember to print two separate ones, one white and one red), but no supports are needed unless your printer struggles with bridging. The center piece also prints in about 15 minutes, while the button only takes roughly 2 minutes to complete.
