Kendamas

Kendama (kendama) is a classic Japanese toy consisting of a ken and tama connected by a string. The ken has three cups and a spike that fits into the hole in the ball. Basic kendama tricks involve catching the ball in the cups and on the spike, but a wide variety of tricks can be performed by juggling the ball between the cups, balancing it in different positions on the ken, balancing the ken on the ball, and juggling the kendama. As these have been extremely popular overseas, I thought, why not create one that's 3D printable? This model clicks together to form your own kendama! Paint and decorate it however you like and post pictures of your design.
