Description

Update November 11, 2024: Included f3d file to make it easy to remix.

This is where Magna-tiles meets K'nex. Build your geometrical shapes without worrying about it falling apart on you!

I was playing with magna-tiles with my 3-year-old son and he can be quite destructive. How discouraging it was every time I'd be close to completing a neat design before he'd come over and destroy it!

And so, this concept was born!

Watch me build one!

About

I've designed two different types of clips. V2 was designed to make it a little more difficult for it to come apart.

LT - Lower Tolerance

HT - Higher Tolerance

I recommend printing just a few clips of each tolerance so you know which one meets your needs.

The removal tool came about because I found it hard to remove clips sometimes. There's a part of the tool that fits inside the clip so you can pry it off of your polygon.

Print Instructions:

Supports:

  • Removal Tool: Yes
  • Everything else: No
