Airless Basketball Gen 10

GEN 10: I have adjusted the size of the hex holes and increased the filled on them. I've also increased the lattice thickness to 8mm to hopefully increase bounce. The logo on the top and the airless gen 10 tag have also increased in size a little to improve how they look. Lastly, the holes around the seam are now pentagons as in the original ball

I wasn't satisfied with the current models of the airless basketball on here as they only had a single lattice. This took me days make sure the double lattice worked in CAD - SolidWorks was not built for this! As I don't have $2,500 to spare, I worked from the images available online.

MATERIALS I'VE TESTED:

• Extrudr Hard TPU (58D) - good durability about 40% bounce
• Overture Super PLA+ - 100% bounce but broke easily
• Overture easy nylon (PA6) - broke almost instantly (the community have suggested “annealing” the print in water to increase durability)
• BASF Forward AM Ultrafuse TPU 64D - good durability and 60% bounce (BEST SO FAR)
