This awe inspiring geometry is known as a sphericon. It has a single continuous surface that makes it roll along a very curious wobbly path. This version is modified to have a sloped surface that looks extra sleek without affecting the performance.

Download includes the full model, and a split version optimized for FDM printing. The center connector piece is a tight fit and may need to be scaled down 1 or 2 percent depending on your printer... or you can just glue the halves together with E6000 or superglue.

This can be printed with a 5% infill, but the heavier it is, the better it tends to roll, so a solid copperfill version would be pretttty cool. If you're feeling extra fancy you can buy a solid metal print from my Shapeways store.

Scale however you'd like
