Description

Press for making 40 mm diameter groundbait balls for carp and groundfish.

The design of this ball press has been carefully studied:

to be 3D printable, even with PETG
to be strong and durable
for resist the strong pressure exerted by two impatient fishermen's hands 😉
for make balls!

It is printed in just 2 parts, each including a integrated internal ball ejection mechanism.
As a result, it can be 3D printed in “print in place”.

For the price indicated, you getez a complete premium model with 3 parts, to create 2 different bait ball press models :

A model with a side slit to insert hooks or small feeders into the ball
A solid model, slotless

My models are designed for the’3D FDM printing. They are designed to meet specific needs of fishermen. They have been designed, printed and tested several times under real fishing conditions until optimal results are achieved.

Technical Tips for 3D Printing

Numerous tests were carried out before obtaining this 3D printable model in PETG, without support, with the internal mechanism already included in the part.
PETG recommended, ABS, ASA, PLA+.

There's no need to fill to 100%, but I recommend opting for a percentage that will support the inside of each piston, around 30% with a cubic fill for example.
Can be printed with a 0.6 mm nozzle (in my case)
At least 3 wall thicknesses

💡 Tip: once the part has been 3D printed, the mechanism may remain stuck. This is normal, don't panic 🙂
The solution is simple: use a cylindrical object with a flat edge slightly smaller than the moving part, and tap it with short, sharp strokes.
Even if you print in PETG, the part will regain its freedom... that's what tolerance is for!
