Contacted support after my issue came up and they were extremely helpful. We found that the print file on the product page needed an update, so they were able to complete that, as well as provide me with another spool to try again.
Unfortunately, the filament broke apart once the basketball was printed and bounced. I followed their instructions for printing exactly, calibrated the filament for my P1S before printing, and dried the filament for over 24 hours prior to printing to make sure I could have the best results possible. Unfortunately, that all didn't appear to be enough as the basketball still split along the layer lines after less than 10 bounces from standard bounce height.
Amazing product, American made, sweet branding.
I’ll be back
I was nervouse, but following the parameters in the Party Lime Makerword file, this ball printed surprisingly well. The bounce and durability are not much different than a normal basketball.
Followed the print profile to the T on my X1C and came out like garbage.
