Airless Soccer Ball Model/3MF

Watch our printing video here: 

Our new airless soccer ball model! I designed the soccer ball to meet the official size and weight of a professional league (size 5) soccer ball. Please note that this is still a work in progress – the printing profile I provide is for Ataraxia Art’s flexible PLA filament, which is a bit “squishy” for a soccer ball, so it doesn’t perform as well as a regular soccer ball. I will keep experimenting with different filaments and posting any well-performing filaments to this page.
