Another polyhedral redo, but using the Eufymake E1 to print on clear acrylic. I first made this shape back in early 2021 on draftboard. Colorfull petal pattern printed on clear acrylic, CMYK → White → CMYK so it’s visible on both sides.
@pubultrastar - Quick question for you. Does the Stella4D software create and STL file for you to print the ‘connectors’ or do you have to figure that out yourself once you’ve cutout the design elements?
UPDATE - I think I got my answer as I just came across the post that you made back in May 2024 titled “Learn to create 3D Polyhedral connectors with Fusion 360”. Do you happen to still have the recorded tutorial session that you recorded and would you mind sharing? Thanks in advance.
My process has evolved significantly since making that video, as my Fusion 360 skills have improved. I now export the shape STL from stella, import into Fusion, and the slice off the vertices, to make a connector. Much simpler than messing around with dihedral angles and face creation from scratch. So, not a ton of design work, but way, way faster.
Wow, after looking at the design and actual pieces of your project I an amazed at how complicated it was to build. I enjoy seeing all of the things that you make.
Ok, you just gave me the push I needed. These look amazing!!!
I have an Eufy as well and wanting to print and then cut, but my brain cannot wrap my head around that yet (I am a little overwhelmed by eufy and also my other workload). Do you have a tutorial showing how to calibrate the snap marks?
