Globe Bearing Version

Hey
this is a Globe that actually spins.
You will need to buy some external parts to assemble this.

LED Stripe: You can use any led stripe you can find online, but I would prefer one that can be cut in length.

You will need one regular skateboard bearing.

And you will need one bearing like this: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0834QW1SW?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
Be sure to buy one that fits exactly the dimensions this bearing has, otherwise you won't be able to assemble this. I will also make a version of this that descent need a bearing, so if you c ant get one, maybe just wait for that version.

Print settings.
Globe File. This one is the heart of the globe, so be sure to get it right. Print with a .4 mm Nozzle or a layer height of 0.2 and a width.
Turn on supports, but put the threshold to 89C. You don't want to support the sphere but only the insert for the bearing on the top of the inside of the globe.
All other parts don't need special treatment. Print the cap with normal supports and everything else without. If something doesn't fit, maybe scale the parts just a little bit.

Assembly:
1 Put the skateboard bearing on the Rod.
2 Put the big Bearing in the Globe.
3 Wrap the LED strip around the rod.
4 make sure the Cable is in the little hole in the cap.
5 Put the rod inside the Globe with the bearing side up. Push it through the small hole at the North Pole. 
6 Now put the cap in place. Be sure the cable is in the right spot.
7 Push the C onto the stand.
8 Put the globe into the C. It will be a little elastic because of the shape.

That's it, enjoy your Globe!

This is still a really early version will win, continuously update this.
There will also be different versions of Globes and different sizes, so stay tuned and follow me to get notified.
