Description

❄️ Ultimate Rapid-Fire Snowball Maker with Ejector

Turn your next snow day into a strategic victory! This 3D-printable Snowball Maker features a unique ejector button, solving the problem of snow sticking to the mold.

Why this design?

Most printed snowball makers require you to shake or pry the snowball out, often breaking it in the process. This model uses a friction-fit Ejector System. Just compress the snow, press the button, and a perfect, aerodynamic snowball pops right out into your hand.

Key Features

  • Mechanical Ejection: A dedicated internal plunger ensures a clean release every single time, even with wet, sticky snow.
  • Ergonomic Grip: Designed for gloved hands with a textured handle for maximum leverage and comfort during extended "battles."
  • High-Compression Mold: Engineered to create dense, spherical snowballs that fly further and straighter.
  • Print-Friendly Design: Optimized for 3D printing with no supports required.

Recommended Print Settings

To ensure the mechanical parts are durable enough for the cold, please follow these guidelines:

  • Material: PETG is highly recommended for cold-weather durability and impact resistance. PLA+ works well for casual use.
  • Threading: Make sure to use variable layer height as needed to make sure the plunger screws to together easily.

Please note it has not snowed where I live in Tennesee. So I have only been able to test the model with ice I put in the blender sadly.
