A set of molds for making spheres of various sizes (from 4 to 10 mm).
The tool can only shape one sphere at a time, but it is small and, most importantly, very quiet.
For each size, simply print the rotor/stator pair.
The hex socket measures 1/4 inch and is compatible with common screwdriver bits.
Prepare the appropriate amount of material using the empty space at the top of the rotation shaft (which is equal to the volume of the sphere) and place it between the rotor and the stator. Rotate the top part with your fingers for a couple of turns and then remove the ball.
You can use the manual adapter to improve the grip, but it's not necessary. If you're particularly lazy, you can use an electric screwdriver.
If you have printed more than one sphere maker you can keep them together using the dedicated box: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7287699
