Starting from just one random number you can use code to generate snowflakes, clocks, and even entire worlds. Use our simple randomizer as a starting point for adding some controlled randomness to just about any OpenSCAD design…
In this article we’ll walk through how to create a simple penny trap model four ways: in Tinkercad, Fusion 360, OpenSCAD, and the Thingiverse Customizer…
Our Giant Spiky Perko Knot takes six days to print… In this post we’ll walk through a reprint of this giant 3D model, and compare dissolvable and breakaway supports…
You can create a unique, custom generated 3D-printed clock face with just a little bit of design knowledge and an inexpensive battery-powered clock kit…
The Snowflake Machine uses random numbers, mathematical algorithms, computer code, and SCIENCE to create over a billion unique, beautiful snowflakes…
This week we recreated a special collection of 3D knot models based on projects we did with students a few years ago, suitable for printing on SLS printers…
One of our favorite 3D designs is a model of Dudeney’s famous hinged dissection of a triangle to a square, also known as the Haberdasher’s Puzzle…
This is a joint work by Edmund Harriss (gelada) and Laura Taalman (mathgrrl), inspired by British constructivist artist Mary Martin’s artwork “Inversions”…
Sometimes a digital 3D design looks great in software, but just can’t make it in reality. We’ll examine how auto-checks, human checks, and prototyping can help…
Do we need another filament sampler model? Probably not, but we made one anyway, using Tinkercad, Fusion, Blender, and OpenSCAD to make it customizable…
