This wireframe version of the Ambiguous Cylinder illusion has been meticulously designed to create a stunning and minimal display of confounding perspectives. Stood in front of a mirror and viewed at the correct angle, this shape appears to be an entirely different form from its reflection.
Both regular and large version are included! Large version is more advanced and requires custom supports. I also glued it to the base using E6000 adhesive. Help in place with a binder clip to align it properly
This is an updated illusion based on the original by Kokichi Sugihara. I printed it using MatterHackers Quantum PLA to achieve the amazing color changing effect!
I had success printing at 0.12mm layer height. Smaller layer height should significantly improve the top surface.
2 shells, 0% infill, 6 top and bottom layers.

There are also two versions of the base, and two lengths of printable rods for the base. You can also use any 1/8" rods.
