The file 'Ball In A Cage 3D Printer Model' is (scad,stl) file type, size is 1.6MB.

Summary

Here's is a result of a "Ball in a cage" trial I once made with OpenSCAD. Some eleven lines of code only (!).

NOTE: In my printed piece (see the photo) the ball had only 60 faces i.e. $fn=60 and hence the polygons show way too clearly. In the attached STL, $fn=180 has been used for smoother surfaces.

Update: OpenSCAD source added.
