Description

###PROJECT PRESENTATION

I share with you the source files allowing you to make a **solid ball and socket connection ** to reuse in your designs.
This version is the result of a long series of iterations to find the right design.

This ball joint allows to have a displacement of 25° from its axis, and at 360°.

I used it in my design of phone support: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4694593

This includes .step files and files from Fusion (.f3d).

I hope this will help you in your future designs!

**Reuse it well! **

UPDATE 11/02/2020 (V3 files)

  • Better sketch in Fusion 360 with more constraint (will less go messy if chnaging dimensions)
  • Larger walls for the base to avoid printing problems
  • Shorter link on the ball joint to reduce overhang
  • Bigger displacement (about 30°)

V3 files are 100% compatible with files of the first version

###Please note:
*I don't customize my designs, to the person, because I share them for free. A global solution is given (adapted to the greatest number), but I can't do it on a case by case basis, without remuneration for the time spent. *
