Description

Model Overview

 

Bring your custom made bobber from your favorite block game to your next fishing trip and catch some fish in style!

This model requires no glue, as many parts simply snap in place. This model does use a couple small pen springs but will also fit the compression spring linked on Maker Supply. You will need two springs for each of the bobber “buttons” that hold your line in place.

Note: Stainless steel springs are recommended as other springs may be prone to corrosion.

How to Assemble:

Begin by printing each of the parts required:

1x - Bobber main body

2x - Bobber buttons

1x - Bobber mounting plate

Gather 2 compression springs for either old ink pens or purchase them on Maker Supply.

Next, start by taking the main body of the bobber and insert the mounting plate into the square hole at a 45 degree angle. This will be a snug fit. Then take some long nose pliers and gently rotate the mounting plate to snap in place. Please note the two corners of where the mounting plate is inserted.

The mounting plate will “snap” into place.

Finally, slide your compression springs on each side of the bobber mounting plate. Then simply press the two tabs in on the bobber buttons and slide them through the square hole. The two tabs will move into the cut out tracks inside the main body.

Once both sides are complete you are ready to go! Simply press down the bobber button and insert your fishing line into the small hook and let go of the button!

 

If you like this model, please consider taking a look at my other models!

Happy fishing!

It will work with PLA, however since this is an outdoor model it is recommended to use materials with weather resistant properties like ASA. However, I have found PETG to be sufficient and last quite some time outside, hence the reason why I used it.
