Summary

Sphero, the real Sphero, is awesome! It's both fun and educational and I keep one in my kindergarten class, bringing out the little guy as a reward, or for quick group programming lessons using the SPRK Lab app's visual coding language. But what about when you want to enjoy Sphero's company sans electricity and Bluetooth enabled device? Print one up, of course!

Post-Printing

I designed Sphero with the icon raised slightly, intending to change my filament from white to blue 98% through the print, but forgot. So instead you see my incredibly detailed permanent marker work.

How I Designed This

This thing was made where I make all my things, Tinkercad! Edit it online https://www.tinkercad.com/things/ivndDeMe36z
