I think TPU won't work. It absorbs too much of the impcrt. Maybe PLA might be worth a try. I have some PLA rings that are pretty bouncy. I don't see why it wouldn't work as a 3D ball as well.
It will be nice if smaller versions are printed and add a hoop for a toy. Less messy than the nerf foam balls and I would say cheaper than the official nba hoop toys.
You are aware that if no one would "waste", as you named it, any filament and power then 3d printing would never be where it is currently, if even it would be commercially available right? Every bit of printed filament is not a waste, just a step to improving our life and the technology of 3d printing itself.

PLA is too brittle. I’d say PETG before pla
@@Xenthera no lol
I tried both PLA and PETG, on carpet both bounce. On hard surfaces, both cracked. TPU 95 has been the best option for bouncing so far.
@@Rammys_3D_PrintsInteresting, thats good to know. I looked into the original wilson ball. It is SLS printed so it is most likely nylon.
@@Rammys_3D_Printsyes my pla cracked on a hard floor lol
Would love to see how it would work with a harder TPU, maybe the BASF Ultrafuse 64D?
Nice wow I didn't see any stringing, all those retractions, nice print!
From what ive seen PLA flexible is the best material to use on a fdp printer. Quite bouncy and durable.
what printer did u use , and how long did it take?
what are the settings, Cura slicer want's to print rafts on the bottom and the top inside the ball....
I want to print it for my kid with htpla
What are the infill settings and other settings please
I’m trying this tomorrow with 95a
I wonder what would happen if this were printed in harder TPU like 98A or the Ninjatek Armadillo (75D)

Need slippers like that 😂
Whats the brand of them ?
Why would you not include your settings or the things you actually learned about the settings?
Can we know where the model is from and in which material it is best to print?
PLA Flex is the best material from what I hear
I am trying this tomorrow with 95a I hope it bounces
how did this work with 95a im looking to print mine here soon
I used flexible pla and it worked better
What support settings did you use?
Normal and touching build plate by the looks of it
@@jajbear10 mine doesn’t look like this in cura, it tries to add support through the inside of the ball
@@DatHondaBoi223use a support blocker and extend the size until it covers the area you need to block out.
@@_JC_1 I tried I couldn’t get it to work right lmao
Wilson is expecting suckers to fork over $2,500 for this this. When this man made It for $12 dollars.
it doesn't even bounce
@hxww so what at least he didn't lose all that money
@@frankiecal3186 ???? it just looks like the ball but doesn't actually function as a basketball
@@hxwwso the extra $2488 is worth it because it bounces? When you could use a different filament to make it bounce?
i can do it iam a wilson
(●’◡’●)ﾉHi
Waste of electric power and filament.
No u
DANNGGG
Like 12 dollars to print tho, I’d say that’s reasonable

Cry about it
