This is a highly accurate, interlocking 3D model of a diamond's crystal lattice structure, featuring carbon atoms (spheres) connected by covalent bonds (rods).

It is designed to be easy to print and assemble, making it a fantastic educational tool for chemistry and physics classes, science fairs, or just a cool geometric decoration for your desk.

You can use the same model for assembling both diamond and lonsdaleite

Key Features:

  • Educational & Fun: Great visual aid to understand carbon structures and hybridization.

  • Easy Assembly: Spheres and rods fit together smoothly.

Print Settings & Tips:

  • Material: PETG works perfectly.

  • Supports: Spheres may require supports at the base depending on your printer's bridging capabilities.

  • Infill: 15-20% is more than enough for durability.

  • Colors: Print the spheres in black or gray (standard for carbon atoms) and the rods in white or gray for a classic look!
