Technic sphere
An attempt to make a more "filled in" sphere with #3 Technic axle connectors. I ran out of them in light grey/bley before I could finish the entire sphere, but I got far enough to convince myself it basically works. I noticed the areas where 3 connectors come together had a tendency to pull apart a little... Could be that the clutch power on some parts weren't as good, that the sphere needed to be finished to be really structurally sound, or that this design isn't 100% legal.
