This is based on the the apparently impossible cube, where I used the designs template , to make a spherical design with a clockwise and anticlockwise thread through the body, which means the segments need to be in the right order for it all to align and with it being a ball also makes it harder to put the segments together.
Try printing first and see if you can put together, I will upload a video later showing how it all goes together
I Printed at 0.15mm layer height, and would suggest printing the head with a minimum infill of 70%, to make sure the shaft is strong.
None of the parts needs supports…enjoy
The author remixed this model.
I used this design as a template to draw my own design where I changed the tolerances and change it from a square to a sphere which makes it harder to hold and to solve . I've also added a twist to the design with a multi-direction shaft running through it which means the segments need to be in the right order for it all to align.
Then to finish it all off with a BB-9E look, and an Empire logo base
