Description
Modeled a little ball bearing in blender as a test, then made it on my 3D printer, was a nice exercise, and now I have a functional ball bearing XDRelated content

clarification: a ball bearing is the little ball. This is a spin grommet.

I know this is pretty late, but it actually is a ball bearing, as the device is a ball (supported) bearing. Β The balls are called bearing balls, because they bear the (radial, in this case) load. Β
Spin grommets would be something akin to what you find on office desks, with openings to allow cable routing.

beside the support structure for printing? not really, I wont lie it did need some trimming to remove some imperfections at the contact points with the support but beside that, nothing

Planning to do figurines in the near future (if all goes well a couple of months?), but the first stage is making more simple stuff for some specific niches, like industrial engineering architecture and fantasy/cosplay accessories.

a Form1, is aΒ Β Stereolithography 3D printer, so the finish are of great quality

So cool!
Oh the fun I could have with one of them (though I would likely just get lazy and not use it much >w<)

Well is actually hard to come up with stuff to make really , harder that one may think XD

Hehe well as long as you can model it, it can make it right?

yes, sort of, there are size restrictions on the machine XD , and also you must think how is best to build it so it will print in as little time as possible and using as little material as possible too
