Description
A geometric cube that splits horizontally into three interlocking parts. Print them separately, snap them together, pull them apart — and repeat. The fit is just right: tight enough to feel deliberate, loose enough to slide apart with one hand. It's the kind of object you'll keep reaching for on your desk.
The surfaces feature a concentric square pattern on the top and bottom faces, with clean parallel ridges along the sides. Once assembled, the seams almost disappear and you're left with a striking, solid-looking geometric cube.
Pick the version that suits you:
| File | Edge Length | Tolerance | Feel |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30mm Loose | 30 mm | Loose | Pocket-sized, snaps easily |
| 50mm Loose | 50 mm | Loose | Smooth, effortless fit |
| 50mm Tight | 50 mm | Tight | Firmer resistance, less play |
Not sure which to pick? Start with 50mm Loose — it's the most balanced experience. Want a satisfying snap with no wobble? Go 50mm Tight. Want something portable? Print the 30mm.
This design shines when you print each of the 3 parts in a different color. The horizontal split lines become a feature instead of a seam — see the cover photo for the pink + blue + pink combo. Some great combos to try:
No AMS / multi-material printer required — just swap filament between the three prints.
| 30mm | 50mm | |
|---|---|---|
| Print time | ~2 hours | ~6.5–7 hours |
| Material | ~26 g | ~107 g |
| Parts | 3 | 3 |
| Supports | Brim on one part | Brim on one part |
| Assembly | No glue, no tools | No glue, no tools |
Print each part flat on its largest face. PLA works great. No glue, no fasteners — just print, peel, and snap together.
