Flexi Keychain

This is an articulating keychain that is not only fun to fidget with having 3 articulating joints but can also be customized to your liking. In the pictures, I've shown how you can add initials or logos to each flat face on the keychain for your own customization.

Pi-thon

Wanna be the cool kid at this year’s “Pi Day” festivities? This print-in-place articulating “Pi-thon” is embossed with the first 25 digits of pi. 

Pi Day is an annual celebration of the mathematical constant π (pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14 (3/14 in the month/day format) since 3, 1, and 4 are the first three significant digits of π.

This snake uses a unique print-in-place ovoid joint designed to be stronger than the interlocking double ring joints used in many articulated designs, so this design is more suitable for use as a fidget or children’s toy.

Like a “ball and socket” joint, the oval-shaped ovoid from one segment is held in place by a similarly shaped socket in the neighbouring segment. Varying the relative dimensions of the ovoid and socket allows for precise control of the movement between each segment. In this design, lateral side-to-side movement is maximized, but rotation and up/down movement is slightly restricted. This more accurately mimics the “tone” and movement patterns of a real snake.

You may get some small adhesions between segments. Simply apply a bit of force to move the joint the first time, and it will be fine after that.

Surface texturing for this design was done with nTopology.

Serpentes nTopologus Voronoicus

This “Serpentes nTopologus Voronoicus” is part of a series of three articulating snakes demonstrating various ways that nTopology can be used to design unique topology within complex designs. It incorporates the gyroid TPMS into the body of the snake.

See here for video: https://youtu.be/z7fLPr0367s 

These topology snakes use a unique print-in-place ovoid joint designed to maximize available volume and surface area for other design elements.

This joint type is stronger than the interlocking double ring joints used in many articulated designs, so this design is more suitable for use as a fidget or children’s toy.

These snakes are 72cm in length but will print on a 220mm x 220mm build plate.

Like a “ball and socket” joint, the oval-shaped ovoid from one segment is held in place by a similarly shaped socket in the neighbouring segment. Varying the relative dimensions of the ovoid and socket allows for precise control of the movement between each segment.

Voronoi Viper

This “Voronoi Viper” is part of a series of three textured articulating snakes.

These textured articulating snakes use a unique print-in-place ovoid joint to create realistic snake movement. This joint type is stronger than the interlocking double ring joints used in many articulated designs, so this design is more suitable for use as a fidget or children’s toy.

The snakes are 54sm in length but will print easily on a 200mm x 200mm build plate.
