Geometry: Icosahedron corner connectors for wooden skewers

prusaprinters

<p>This corner connectors are used to join together inexpensive wooden skewers (barbecue sticks) into one of the Platonic solids: Icosahedron (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid</a>). This is an inexpensive way to create different forms for education purpose possibly in schools.</p><p>There are 2 variants with 3.5 and 3.2 mm hole (approx 1/8″), this fits the most common wooden skewers on the market around us. We can create different dimensions if needed.</p><p>We learned that printing very small things is problematic without powerful part cooling. Our recommendation is to print more maybe all 12 corners at once.</p><p>Category: Math</p>
