Sewing Pattern Weight

These pattern weights can be filled with ballast in the form of ball bearing balls or any other small heavy items.

They can be printed in one color, but as I had a wood PLA laying around, I thought that it would be a good idea to make it look a bit more interesting. The upper and lower part are printed in the wood PLA. For the middle part I chose different colors PLA.

It is also fine, of course, to print it in one color.

The profile will pause the print just before the end to make it possible to add the ballast. Make sure that it will not get higher than the rim. I always check with a flat item to be sure. If it sticks higher up, the nozzle will hit the ballast.

If you print it, I would love it if you upload a photo and a comment.
