12mm (¾ Inch) Sphere for Monkey Fist. My son makes Monkey Fist Begleri “Fidgets” (A Greek Toy) with ¾" steel bearings. Unfortunately due to issues with my hands I can not use them. I had been told they were good for helping with hand issues, so I figured out that ¾ inch sphere would print in about 1hr and enable my son to construct one I could use.
The Red set is made with the steel bearing, weighing 69g. The Orange set is made with 3D printed set, weighing 22g. The sizes are approximately the same but the weight is very different. The 3D printed one works well for me without the pain caused by the weight of the steel bearings.
The spheres are printed in PLA with 100% infill and organic supports, wrapped with 550 cord.
