This fishing bobber (or indicator) is about .75" in diameter.  With the nut at the top of the threaded shaft, inset the line or leader into the slot, then tighten the nut down on the line.  To adjust the bobber to fish at a different depth, just loosen the nut and slide the line or leader to the appropriate position and retighten the nut.  The body of the bobber can be printed at any layer height.  However, the threads on the bobber and all of the nut should be at .15mm or finer layer height.  Use a filament that is light in weight to avoid scaring the fish.  DOW Olefin Block Copolymer (OBC) is best (if you can find it).   PP, ABS, ASA, PVB  can also be used.  PETG and PLA also work, but are quite heavy compared to the filaments mentioned above.
