Begleri Revival!! by Spark908

Begleri Revival!!

Spark908

It may not look like much, but I'm finally reviving my begleri prints!! Below are the type of basic begleri's that I got quite good at making before. I did what I could with what hardware I had at the time, but now, It's time to take it to the next level! Pictured above is my first dual extrusion, single piece begleri bead. 

The process of making these before entailed printing the two halves and gluing some metal inside of the two halves before gluing those halves together. I ended up remaking the internals of these beads so that it is able to print in one piece, while also having some sick texture on them!!! These ones are printed one and done, no glue necessary! They still have metal inside for weight as well! The downside? My old begleri beads took 40 minutes to print. The new dual extrusion ones? Two hours and forty minutes!!! Wild! Worth it though.. I just have to perfect a bit of post processing to make them look a bit more sleek instead of muddied. 

These things helped me through so many years of anxiety, and boredom. They aren't some basic low iq fidget toy like fidget spinners either XD I have to dunk on fidget spinners... They're just, so boring!!! If you don't know what begleri are, check out this awesome video by Kuma films that actually got me into begleri in the first place! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yZC1inesPY
