Safari Ball (Auto-Opening Poke Ball)

This Safari Ball was created as part of #ProjectKurt project using the Editable Poké Ball model (listed as a remix here), based off of the in-game model from Pokemon Sword and Shield. It’s part of an ongoing series of Poké Balls adapted from the main series of games, but if you want to see what custom designs others have made, you can check out both in the links below!

Note! Due to the complicated nature of the Safari Ball's design, I have only tested the AMS version and therefore it is the only one included in the 3mf file. If you would like to attempt to print each piece of the design out separately and glue it together, an EXPERIMENTAL STEP file has been included that has not been tested by me. It does contain a bit of tolerance in between each of the different-colored parts on the design, so it should theoretically be assemblable. It will most likely need to be pieced together like a puzzle, though.

Check the PDF for written assembly instructions with pictures. The 3mf was made using the .step file for the project, so it has a higher resolution than the STLs themselves.

Informational video on Safari Balls also included, as well as a video on the project, how you can make your own custom ball design, and printing/construction instruction in the long form vid below (timestamps included in the description).
