I found a really nice model on Thingiverse that I wanted to give a go: A “functional” Pokeball – that actually opens! I loved the idea, so I tried it.
My main problem was getting the hinge insert and white button in the front precise enough. Like I already mentionend, without tinkering and completely upgrading several parts, it just doesn’t print precise enough for models like this.
After a lot of tweaking and trial & error, I finally managed to make it kinda work. I ended up printing the button a bit larger and trimming it down until it fitted, but I reached the infill since I didn’t make the walls thick enough for this.
Lessons learned…
