With 3D printing technology becoming increasingly popular, it was to be expected: a designer has developed downloadable 3D files allowing you to create a real pocket foosball at home!
A mini foosball table just a click away!
So yes, you shouldn't expect to hold spectacular tournaments around this miniature table football, just a few centimeters wide. Especially since it's going to be a bit of a challenge to get to grips with... On the other hand, it's a wonderful, fun, and decorative piece (you can paint and customize it however you like) to display in a window, for example. When traveling, it can even help pass the time! Congratulations to creator Christos Markides for this amazing creation.
The promise of new possibilities!
The major advancement of this mini foosball table lies not in its design but in its manufacturing process. Today, a pocket-sized foosball table, tomorrow, a real, life-size bar foosball table at a bargain price! And yes, the advantage of 3D printing, beyond the fact that it will allow anyone to create all kinds of 3D objects, is its ridiculously low production cost. Will this soon be a new era for foosball tables? Let's hope that manufacturers like Roberto Sport and Petiot will find the idea interesting. To be continued...
