Visualize and explore the atomic arrangement of common FCC crystal surfaces using 8 mm metal balls.
This set contains three 3D-printable models representing the FCC (111), FCC (110), and FCC (100) surfaces. Place the metal balls into the shaped holes to build each atomic layer and clearly see how the stacking arrangement differs between the three crystallographic orientations.
The models are intentionally non-rectangular. When multiple layers are stacked, the exposed edges make it easier to observe surface terraces, steps, and changes between atomic layers.
Features
Models for FCC (111), FCC (110), and FCC (100) surfaces
Designed for 8 mm metal balls
Stackable construction for easy storage
Non-rectangular geometry that reveals terraces and step edges
Recessed holes underneath for optional rubber feet
Includes a separate storage tray for the metal balls
Useful for teaching, demonstrations, materials science, crystallography, and surface science
These models provide a simple, hands-on way to demonstrate crystal packing and surface structure without relying only on diagrams or computer visualizations.
Print the models, add the metal balls, and start building your own FCC surfaces!
