HYPERCUBE (TESSERACT) DOWEL PIN DIY
Print Profile(2)


Description
A tesseract, also known as a 4D hypercube, is the four-dimensional analogue of a cube. It has 16 vertices, 32 edges, 24 square faces, and 8 cubic cells. Since humans can't perceive four dimensions, it's often visualized as a 3D projection, resembling a cube within a cube. The tesseract is a key concept in higher-dimensional geometry and appears in mathematics, physics, and popular culture.
Do u mind printing one for yourself today?
Part list:
- 261023-01-001-CORNER CONNECTOR - 8x
- 261023-01-002-MIDDLE CONNECTOR - 8x
- short wooden dowel - 8x (to connect internal and external cubes)
- medium wooden dowel - 12x (for internal cube)
- long wooden dowel - 12x (for external cube)
The ratio of wooden dowel lengths is 1 : 1.15 : 2.44, where 1 is the length of the shortest wooden dowel - for example:
- short dowel = 100 mm
- medium dowel = 115 mm
- long dowel = 244 mm
The connectors were designed in such a way that the wooden dowel with the external diameter of 10 mm (+-0,1mm) should create a press fit between the connector and the dowel.
There is no need to use any glue or fasteners to assemble the Tesseract!
All the files are oriented correctly.
Printing tips:
TIP 1: Use a brim to make sure that the printing process will be successful.
TIP 2: There is no need to use any supports, but using them might produce better quality parts.
TIP 3: Best widely available material to print the connectors is PET-G or ABS as PLA creeps a lot - after some time, your press fit will be gone.
