Description

"The Floating Balance: A Mini Table Suspended by Tension"

Imagine a mini table whose top seems to defy gravity, hovering effortlessly in mid-air, supported only by the delicate tension of fine wires. This 3D sculpture is a stunning fusion of engineering and art, designed to captivate the imagination. Each wire is strategically placed, creating a perfect balance that holds the tabletop aloft, as if by some unseen force.

The minimalist design of the base contrasts with the apparent weightlessness of the floating surface, emphasizing the brilliance of its construction. This piece is more than furniture; it’s a visual spectacle and a conversation starter. Ideal for modern spaces, it celebrates the harmony of tension and balance, showcasing the power of precision and the wonder of the unexpected.

A cool idea - but it's missing assembly instructions. What kind of string/wire should be used? How should the wires be connected? What is the recommended way of connecting the wires? (e.g. place the triangle parts on their side, start by connecting the XYZ parts, next connect... etc. etc.)

I recommend fishing line because it is very resistant and transparent! it is mounted by passing the wires inside the cavities! the supported support is the central one, then on the three sides between one triangle and another

I have printed it, but I do not understand the purpose of the small parts, and is it normal that the hole in one part is not completely through

Replying to @BarthTim12 :
the little parts are to shim the fishing line on the bottom triangle. it took me awhile to figure it out, although I printed it 3 years ago off of Thingaverse.

This is great model. There are tunnels to lead and adjust the strings.

First plate came out good, cooling now and and gonna start the 2nd plate. for some reason this app doesn't let me rate later on so I'm rating now and will show a pic of what the finished assembly looks like and how it went. Thank you for making a print profile for the mini I really appreciate it!

The excellent design carefully considers wire routing, wire end concealment, and post-installation tension adjustments, allowing it to be easily tuned to its maximum load capacity
