PokeBall - Fully Functional with Button and Hinge

By MrFozzieSource

Barnacules printed this PokeBall go check out his video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SkTL3rZV00 UPDATE: 27th September 2016 - Added a 3mm Hinge Pin file for those who wish to use the 3mm hinge for a stronger hinge but have a 1.75mm filament printer. Can also be used if you would rather print a pin to the right shape rather than use filament. UPDATE: 24th August 2016 - The 1.75mm Inner Shells have had their holes widened from 1.8mm to 2mm as requested by many people so that 1.75mm filament should hopefully now fit! (Sorry it took me so long to do this) UPDATE: 19th July 2016 - Due to tolerance issues surrounding the Outer Button I have made one with a much larger tolerance meaning it should be easier to assemble. Having seen a few makes now I strongly reccoment you Print 'Outer Button Smaller' unless you have a lot of confidence in your printers accuracy. (I added this to the assembly instructions so that people who do not read this should still be okay) UPDATE: 14th June 2016 - Added Inner Shells with options for 1.75mm and 3mm filament to be used as the pin for the hinge. - Put all parts through MeshMixer to try fix any holes, let me know if there are still problems. - Added picture of assembly and suggested printing orientation. DESCRIPTION Fully functional PokeBall made to be an exact replica of the real thing! Uses only 3D printed parts and super glue yet has fully functional hinge and button which presses in and unlocks a catch to allow you to open it, using the flex in the plastic to act as a spring. Hinge opens to 90 degrees and stops like the real thing and does not stick out the back so cannot be seen, also just like the real thing. The button also hides its own mechanism from view adding to the authenticity. Parts have notches and grooves to ensure perfect alignment while glueing allowing you to have a perfect model with ease. I believe this to be the most accurate and easy to print PokeBall you can make with a 3D printer so
