I've grown fond of openSCAD. It's a very nice package and free. A single line of code constructs a spherical Christmas ornament.
Difference() {sphere(r=25,$fn=48); sphere(r=24,$fn=48); }
The above line makes a hollow sphere about 2 inches across with 1 mm thick walls. A few additional lines of code builds a connector so that it can be hung on a tree. The resulting stl file takes about an hour to print and produces a smooth, light, (about 6 grams), ornament. Unfortunately, while printing, the extruder moves back and forth from the same vertical line leaving a small slit at the midpoint of the sphere. To get a complete sphere a slightly thicker wall is needed. The file "sphere_plus.stl", has a 2 mm wall and takes about two hours to print. The openSCAD file sphere_plus.scad was used to create it. The image at the upper left shows two complete spheres and the 1 mm sphere with a slit. I apologise for the colors, I have only yellow and brown plastic left. Silver might be nice
