This magic circle puzzle is published in a book “Creative Puzzles of the World” from 1978. Originally to make from wood.
I adopted it for 3D printing.
The photos above are from a print that is scaled to 50% z and 80% x/y.
I decided to print each segment individually and then glue together in order to avoid support. My profile has an assembled version too, if you prefer this. I did not test that yet.
There are two ways to assemble it (after printing)
a) glue together all pieces in the assembled version
b) glue together the 3 pieces of each part individually. (you may use my optional template/stencil for that)
In case of a) your first task will be to get the 3 parts apart afterwards (see 3 pictures in the assembly guides)
In case of b) you need to put them together.
Have fun finding out how it works.
