All of the project was printed on my Ender 3 with a direct drive extruder, with an E3D Volcano hot end. I use OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi 4 connected to a BIGTREETECH BTT SKR 3 motherboard. On OctoPrint, I can remotely monitor my prints on octoeverywhere.com.

The transparent parts of the face are generic clear PETG.

The base, sphere, and face are all Brass-filled Metal Composite HTPLA from Protopasta. Unfortunately, it is $100/kg which is extremely expensive for filament. It is moderately polish-able, but I did not have the opportunity to polish the sphere as intended.

All of the fasteners were M3 SHCS from this set https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0742DDLQ1 ($20)
