<p>The Answer.</p> <p>Also, just having fun trying out a some 3D CAD and printing ideas. More versions on the way.</p> <p>This one : 42 Rotation (print in place)</p> <p>Five rotating rings, each of which holds a "puzzle piece," show the Answer in silhouette when rotated into the correct position. The effect is difficult to photograph, but easy to see in the print.</p> <p>OnShape 3D CAD files :</p> <p><a href="https://cad.onshape.com/documents/ef0e7031d7c44bd0c9cbd602/w/ff6e0cec2fc09e0b13bc9cef/e/57d5643daf20141372517250">https://cad.onshape.com/documents/ef0e7031d7c44bd0c9cbd602/w/ff6e0cec2fc09e0b13bc9cef/e/57d5643daf20141372517250</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Print in PLA using the 3mf file provided. Otherwise :</p> <ul> <li>10% rectilinear infill</li> <li>perimeters = 2</li> </ul> <p>The model must be oriented properly on the build plate, with the proper flat side down (that is, all of the "puzzle pieces" on the bottom). In addition, I oriented the model at a -45 degree Z angle so the tops would print a bit better.</p>
