Description
A very entertaining toy based on a hyperboloid.
Everything is 3D printed except the nylon thread used to hold the beads.
Parts list:
- 1 x rod
- 2 x disks
- 2 x caps
- 22 x beads
- 1 x base
You can get pretty creative with the bead colors. I also considered exposing the infill on the disks for an unique look.
Future ideas:
- knurled caps
- different bead shapes
3D printing settings
No special settings are needed.
I printed mine in PLA, on an Ender 3, with a 0.6 mm nozzle (0.4 should be fine as well), 0.2 mm layer height and 20% infill.
The beads are a lot easier to print with a brim.
