This paper describes a robot balanced on a ball, which was manufactured by a 3D printer. The purpose of the development is to provide full technical information of this kind of robot to answer the requests from those who have interests on it and want to build it, while previous robots that authors had built have no enough schematics or readable codes. Moreover, it requires many types of machining, which is not easy for non-professional people. Therefore, the author built a new one from scratch using 3D printer, which means downloaded data may yield mechanical components of it. In addition, the size of the robot was shrunk so that it can be operated easily. The design and implementation of the robot follow basic principle of it.
