Description
Controller stand for the Nintendo Switch Pro controller (OG and Pro Controller 2) styled after a Pokemon Poke Ball.
Simple to print, with basic assembly that doesn't require an AMS, as all colour parts print separately.
This is a remixed model originally by @kriswillcode, I've changed the size, made the bottom flat (so it will stand) and added the cut out that allows a Switch Pro controller to sit on the Poke Ball. The plates have also been re-arranged for easier printing.

Filaments; Red, White and Black (I used all Bambu Basic PLA)
The parts for this stand have been arranged into their own colour based plates, to keep the printing simple and remove the requirement for an AMS.
Print them in any order you like, once printed and removed from the plate, we can move on to assembly.
This is what your completed set of parts should look like:
What you will need: Printed parts, glue (I used basic superglue)
Start off with the white part of the Poke Ball, turn it over, so the flat part is at the bottom. Put some small dabs of glue into the 3 recesses, then fit the three black pegs into the holes, like so:
Now, we need to fit the black middle plate, I added some glue to the top of the white piece in between the pegs and put the black plate in place, whilst fitting, line up the flat part of the black plate in line with the flat part of the cutout on the white bottom piece.
Now, add some glue to the black plate between the pegs, you can then either put some glue on top of the black pegs, or inside the recesses on the red top piece, I opted for putting glue on the black parts for simplicity, as the parts were already on a flat surface.
Now, place the red top part, it should be easy enough to line up the pegs to the recesses on the red top piece. It's now crucial to line up the flat cut out parts, as we need to glue a piece to the circular cutout piece as our next step. Make your adjustments quickly before the glue grips and starts to set.
Once the glue on those three parts have set enough to hold it in place, we need to apply a small amount of glue to the flat cutout section, like so
Now, we need to fit the black circular piece, with the cutout facing outwards, like this:
Once the glue has set enough to grip the black part, we need to add some glue to the cut out:
Then, insert the small white circular piece in place, centring it as we do so:
Assembly complete! - Now, allow the glue to try for the time recommended by the glue maker, and you're good to start using your Poke Ball Pro Controller stand :)
