webote Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Hi everybody, I am currently modelling my first wobbler, which I will print in ABS-like resin and I asked my if it will mode well, when printed solid. The weight seems to be correct, Or does it need the air pocket for the floating behavior? Any comment is highly appreciated! Have a nice weekend!

Hand Crafted Angling Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 The air pocket in the top is to keep the lure in the water vertically instead of floating on its side. The hooks may lower the center of mass enough to get it to sit right. So would making holes in the bottom for weights. You could also print it in two halves and get the air chamber that way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot for the answer @Hand Crafted Angling! Since I found this website some weeks ago, I am amazed y the knowledge and the community! I will consider the air pockets and some extra weight in the bottom now. Have a nice saturday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
