The core of the Rokenbok building system, blocks and beams. Without them the cubic landscape aesthetic of Rokenbok wouldn't be.
Includes Cubes of both regular and C type.
These beam models have been optimized to print with good bridge settings and no supports except for the snaps. PETG recommended, 0.2mm layer height recommended. Instead of painting supports for the snaps, use support blockers for the center of the beams if printing many at once.
What do these model names mean?
For the "premade" models I've included, I'm using a naming scheme of #S/D C, where the number is the length of blocks, the first letter is S or D to denote Single or Double Snap, and C or no C to denote if it is a regular beam type or a C beam type. A regular full beam would be 7D. A half C beam would be 3D C. Curved beams are... curved beams.
What are the 1.5 and 2 bay beams?
These beams are for builds that need more rigidity/strength than what regular full beams can provide. Also should work great in RC cranes.
Are they C Beams or O beams????
The C type beams in this model listing are not true C beams. In the Rokenbok system, one of the original beam types was called the C Beam. These beams only had snap pockets on the top side, with the sides being smooth. This makes them excellent for using in build zones where a Dozer vehicle might operate to prevent blade hook snag. As avid Rokenbokkers will notice, the "C" beam in this model listing has snap pockets on both opposing sides. I might be better to call it an O beam instead, but I have no plans of making a true C beam.
The Pieces Folder
I've included the basic building blocks of any straight block or beam in this folder. There are 3 main pieces: Snap End, Open End, and Middle. Additionally there are C beam variants of those three. These 3 and 3 pieces can be combined in just about any fashion to make any configuration of block or beam. Tile, mirror, and combine in your CAD or modeling software of choice. I have no plans of making curved beam pieces.
