Think outside the box!
GeomBlocks T/O is a modular construction set for building shapes in tetrahedral / octahedral geometry.
One way to tile space is with cubes. But that's not the only way. Regular tetrahedra and octahedra also tile space, in an alternating honeycomb pattern. (They can also build larger copies of themselves!)
In GeomBlocks T/O, the tetrahedra have connectors that plug into the octahedra -- and half octahedra, which also turn out to be useful.
This basic set consists of 18 each of half octahedra and two-connector tetrahedra, and 4 each of octahedra, one-, three-, and four-connector tetrahedra. The unit edge length is 20mm.
Use GeomBlocks to explore the mathematics of tessellations, build geometric sculpture, or design puzzles outside the same old cubic landscape. (Complex puzzles might require multiple sets. Some of the photos show multiple sets in multiple colors.)

This Z scale (1/220 scale) kit is based on an early 1970’s CAT 980 open station Articulating wheel loader (before mandatory ROPS requirement). It has an operating weight of about 25 tons with a 260 horsepower diesel power plant and a 4.5 cubic yard general purpose bucket. Model can be built to articulate. Railings on this model are extremely fragile. See images for detailed instructions on how to remove plastic casing that protects the hand rails.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NOTE: MODEL CAN ONLY BE PROPERLY PRINTED IN FROSTED ULTRA DETAIL MATERIAL. FEATURES ARE TOO SMALL FOR PRINTING IN OTHER MATERIALS. This kit has extremely small parts that can easily get lost forever in your carpet or floor, handle with great care. It is highly recommended you clean your kit parts in an ultrasonic cleaner with dawn dishwashing liquid (non bleach formula) and water mixture before painting and final assembly. For best results, airbrush parts in desired color scheme before final assembly. Most important, have fun building your kit and add it to your Z scale layout!

A 1/24th scale version of a pneumatic jack. The jack is fully functional with rolling wheels, spinning back casters that also roll and up and down articulation. Even the lift plate rotates.
These are functional upon printing and move very easily if they are soaked in isopropyl alcohol for 20 minutes (longer than an hour leaves a white film). This cleans off the suspension medium sticky fluid wax. If the stops for various heights no longer work, a little paint or vasoline on the stops in the back will bring them back

This model is of Brewster station, located in Brewster, New York. The original station was built in 1931 by the New York Central Railroad. The line is still in operation, under the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and Metro-North Railroad. I've tried to be as close to historically correct as possible - modeling the station not as it looks today, but as it looked when it was first built.

This is a size 6 ring. It has a full unit cell of diamond cubic structure displayed.
Get her that "diamond" ring she always wanted!!!!
I intend to order one to make sure it prints alright and put up a real photo, but you're welcome to order before that.
I'll scale up things later to allow for gold plated and all that.
