Description

Discover the fascinating physics behind the Pythagorean Cup, also known as the "Greedy Cup"! This ingenious design, originating from ancient Greece, demonstrates the principles of fluid mechanics and the consequences of greed. When the cup is overfilled, it cleverly drains itself completely, showcasing the power of siphoning.

 

This model is perfect for educational demonstrations, physics enthusiasts, or as a conversation starter. It was designed for FDM printing and optimized for Bambu PETG HF filament, ensuring both durability and smooth finishes. PLA does also work fine.

 

Enjoy experimenting with this timeless piece of science and engineering!
