TL;DR
Saw one on formnext 2023 printed with a laser sinter metal printer and needed to mak ethis model for FDM printers.
Collection
Motivation
This sculpture was inspired by a model printed with a laser sinter metal powder printer on Formnext 2023. The original model was too complex and delicate to be printed on an FDM printer, so I redesigned it to be more printable. The resulting sculpture, "Cubes Interlocked," is a geometric dance of form and space, created using two interlocking cube-shaped frames.
To make the sculpture more printable, I simplified the design and reduced the number of parts. I also used a variety of printing techniques, such as bridging and supports, to create the complex geometry of the sculpture.
The finished sculpture is a example for the power of FDM printing. It is a beautiful and complex object that would not have been possible to create without this technology.
I hope that this sculpture will inspire others to explore the possibilities of FDM printing. It is a powerful tool that can be used to create a wide range of objects, from functional prototypes to works of art.
Let's get started
Clean the sheet with IPA and chose a silky filament to print.
You can choose between several steps of thickness for the frame.
If you are lucky to have a smaller nozzle with your printer you can use the STL files with smaller numbers in their name. This number is the thickness of the frame structure. The one from my picture is printed with thickest one the “two_cubes_875.stl”
