Impressive your friends with impossible feets of strength with this fake weight!
This was a design I made to use as a prop in a video about floss which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXCXsKsvdG0
It's based on a real weight type called a kettlebell. The weight in PLA weighs 70 grams.
This was designed in Fusion 360.
The sphere is 10x10 cms and the handle has a radius of 10mm.
The design will work if scaled up or down.
I reccomend sanding with decreasing strength sanding down to a very smooth amount so the paint can be even. I failed to do this well and so the rough spots appear darker than the light which to some extent gives away the illusion. Printing with lower layer height will probably help with this too.
Enjoy!!!
I used .2 layer height. The base was high enough in surface area that a raft was unnecesary. Supports for the handle are necesary.
I used 5% infill.
