There's a lot of files in here, some of which you don't need to start your Wedgits journey. I suggest printing a simple set, pictured on the first two slides above:

  • 1 base (white)
  • 1 cover (white)
  • 1 large (red)
  • 2 medium (blue)
  • 3 small (yellow)
  • 4 mini (green)
  • 5 octa (white)

Once you do that, you may choose to print these extra expansion pieces.

  • Large octahedra (white, double the size of regular octahedra)
  • Small octa-pole (white)
  • Large octa-pole (white)
  • Angled octa-pole (white)
  • XL rhombus (silver, fits into the large rhombus)
  • XXL rhombus (gold, fits into the XL rhombus)
  • Bulge structure (silver)
  • Hourglass structure (gold)
  • Building base (green)

Resize everything to the same scale--910% is half the size of original Wedgits, and what's featured in the pictures. (If you want the large octahedron, double its scale relative to the other pieces.)

Print the base and cover parts without support right side up.
Print the smallest octahedral pieces without support on any face.
Print all other pieces on an outside face with snug grid support. (This prevents elephant's foot; if you look closely, I ignored this on the large gold and silver pieces in the last picture.)

Happy wedging!
