Supports are are required.Assembly InstructionsNo assembly required. Simply clean up any minor artifacts post-printing for optimal usabi🛠Best Results & Troubleshooting GuideThe "Break-In" Period: When the print finishes, it will be stiff and feel solid. This is normal! Firmly squeeze and work the ball in your hands until you hear the internal joints "crack" loose. Once they break free, it will move smoothly.Print Orientation: Always print the file upright. Printing on its side can cause structural issues and prevent the lattice from moving correctly.Scale Matters: If you are having trouble with the movement, try scaling the model up. Larger prints tend to have better clearance for the moving parts.Material Choice: This model is optimized for PLA. Using PETG or other flexible materials may affect the "snap" needed to loosen the joints.Support Cleanup: Be thorough when removing supports from the internal lattice. Any leftover support material can block the movement.Smooth Finish: If the bottom feels a bit rough after support removal, a quick sanding will make it feel much better in your hands.
