Build The Amazing Levitating #Amiga #BoingBall!

In this video we're going to create this rather attractive Amiga-style levitating Boing-Ball! It makes a real attractive display piece and aside from all the 3D printing it actually fairly simple to build. There's a few parts you'll need from Ali-express and E-Bay, but that's not a problem.

NOTE: When ordering the levitator, despite what the pictures may look like there are at least two different designs, one being slightly larger than the other. There's a picture attached that shows if you should use the normal LID/BASE files or the ALT LID/BASE files on Thingiverse.
