Ping Pong Ball – Surprisingly Bouncy

This is a 40 mm solid ping pong ball, designed for FDM printing.
 

Despite being printed on a standard FDM printer, the ball feels surprisingly close to an original ping pong ball in hand and shows very good bounce characteristics.
 

It is not injection-molded, so it won’t be as durable as a factory ball, but for a printed part the result is unexpectedly good.
