Having gone through the batch, it seems that, (as the Smiths never sang): "Some Prints are Tighter than Others"
I will leave the model as it is and folks can make their own accommodation one way or another.
Oakee doakee... Got the prints back. Sphere retention is a bit too tight with these dimensions. It takes significant force to engage sphere. Will adjust octagon dimensions for greater accommodation.
Note: Material is black photopolymer resin. SLA process. No sanding.
(Can you tell I'm nervous about videoing this?)
Experimenting with sphere retention structures which can be more reliably manufactured using FDM/SLA processes.
It's "The Octagons" this time!
Updated the Git to reflect this latest attempt.

On this not very #Spooky night, what better game to play than Ghostbusters on the C64.. Ok, there may be better, but I've not played this in forever.. And wa...
A few updates to the hardware project thingy.
Renamed as "Optical Data Channel..." because although vaguely amusing, "JellyLoad" isn't a terribly helpful title.
Also applied MIT open source license, free and easy do-what-you-like-pal whilst absolving me of any liability if you attempt to use the data and end up destroying the universe or something similarly daft.
