Description
This model features a wireframe Rhombic Dodecahedron, designed in CAD and refined through an iterative process to form a Level 1 Sierpiński Octahedron fractal structure. It includes a seamlessly attached base and prints without requiring any support structures. The intricate design allows light to shine through in unique ways from different angles, including a circular pattern in the isometric view.
I've included a 3MF with all settings pre-configured to print the exact model seen in the photos.
If you like this model, I'm sure you'll love Level 2 of the series! You can find it here:
Print Settings:
Supports: None
Infill: 10%, Gyroid
Layer Height: 0.16mm with 0.2mm base layer
Brim: A brim is strongly recommended, but may not be necessary when printing at larger scales. Use an inner and outer brim (I use 8mm though you can probably get away with a bit smaller if you wish)
Feel free to leave a comment or reach out if you have any questions—I’m here to help!
Have fun! 🥳
