A tiny pinball machine!
And it works (at least as far as it can work on this scale).
This is as small as I could make it regarding the pp3dp's limitations and the function.
It's all a bit close together, but still has multiple features:
-Two flippers
-Edges resembling Slingshot bouncers which block the direct way to the targets
-2 Targets wich slide out to indicate score
-Two bumper on an axis and unsemetric center so they bounce (bump) back
-Ball plunger (flick up to get the ball back into the game)
At this scale, at least with this material and this printer, a spring and other components where not possible.
If you have any other ideas, please share! I'dd also like to see a larger version with more gimmicks.
Files include:
STL
Printing files
Sketchup/SKP:
-A Previous, larger version
-Multiple versions/orientations for printing in one piece or as assembly set
NOTE: 3D pictures lack some minor modifications which I added later on.
TODO:
NOTE:
Colored version is just an example. I will print the edited version and paint the parts prior to assembly... some day.
