Description
A recreation of the Wilson Airless Basketball - this model bounces great and weighs similarly to a regular basketball.
Print settings
4 walls
50% infill (gyroid)
A durable filament with good energy return - see list below for the different tested materials. I highly recommend you use PEBA filament as this design has been optimized for it.
Supports
Randomized seam - if you keep the seam on aligned, it will create a weak point along the lattice causing the ball to break.
