The filigree design over the skull symbolizes ever growing renewal over the ghost of the past. This is the original design as featured on Kickstarter. It became their #1 most funded sculpture project of all time. Small is pictured sitting in the hand. See pic of all 3 sizes together for comparison.

This is a mobius strip of Level 1 or Super Mario Bros. The whole level is wrapped around itself in a single surface, and poor Mario begins and ends at the same spot every time :(

All the elements from the level are there: every mushroom, turtle, cloud and star. They are all carved out of the surface at different heights, which looks fantastic when you have a light coming from the side, and each block casts a shadow.

It's a great piece to have on your desk, or to hang from a string to let it spin around.

A theorem walks into a bar...
The Klein Bottle is a mathematical joke: a surface with only one side. This one feels just right in your hand and opens bottles with ease and style. Built to last in steel, it's the perfect touch for any math fan's kitchen.

Yes, it really works!

Klein not-a-bottle-opener is here.

I created the skeleton of a skeletal Lepidoptera. The Death's Head Hawkmoth (Acherontia atropos), seen on The Silence of the Lambs , has a skull marking on its back. I made a full human-like bone structure for the moth, with the grinning skull protruding from its back.

The model is very thin, yet sturdy and flexible. Detail level is fantastic, and the natural texture of the 3d printing process gives it a bone-like appearance that works wonders.

Yes, moths don't have endoskeletons, that's the whole point...

Roll a Ball on Plastic Rails Inside a 3D Cube. Reach the Exit to Solve the Maze Puzzle. Rolling Ball Maze Puzzle & Brain Game for Kids, teens & Adults.

New 3D Rolling Ball Maze Puzzle. Roll the ball inside a Plastic 3D maze cube to the exit to solve the puzzle. New 2011 brain toy game. A Work of Art.

Color and material options are in the "Select Material" drop-down list on the right. If you want an option not shown or would like a quantity discount, please click on the "Contact Designer" button to write me an email.This pack includes the mazes listed below. Each maze includes it’s own ball.

Escher’s Playground - Reminiscent of the upside-down staircase paintings by Escher, this 7x7x7 maze will soon have you forgetting which way is up and down. The dimensions of this maze are 40mm by 40mm by 40mm and the ball is 9mm in diameter.

Floating Labyrinth - The ball appears to float through an intricately connected matrix. What appears to be open paths are mysteriously blocked in this 6x6x6 maze. The dimensions of this maze are 31mm by 31mm by 31mm and the ball is 8mm in diameter.

Zig Zag Zog - You will learn to zig zag in three dimensions to solve this 5x5x5 maze, but watch out for the pitfalls! The dimensions of this maze are 24mm by 24mm by 24mm and the ball is 7mm in diameter.

Start by pushing the ball into the spring loaded entrance ( it looks like a backwards “J”). Tip the maze in different directions to roll the ball along the paths through the maze. Don’t worry, if you make a wrong turn, the ball will not fall out of the maze. If the ball runs into a dead-end you can just roll the ball back the opposite way and try another path, that’s all part of this fun brain game. When you reach the exit there is a spring loaded button to press to release the ball from the maze. The exit is in a corner of the 3D maze, where you will find a bar with the little button sticking out from the side of the maze.

Each maze game come with the ball attached by a little chain link cage for shipping. This needs to be cut off and cut open with scissors and the ball will fall out. Note that each larger size maze comes with a larger ball. The balls can quickly and easily be colored with a highlighter or marker. Let the ball dry for a minute after applying then roll between clean white paper to remove excess color so it does not rub off on the maze. Paint for plastic models can also be used. The orange, green and black balls in the pictures were colored with highlighters or markers. Coloring the ball makes it easier to track in the Labyrinth maze.

See for yourself how Ethereal Maze Puzzles take maze puzzles to a whole new level of challenge and fun. With their convoluted lattice structure they can also be enjoyed as captivating and intriguing sculptural works of art.

This is my version of the Weighted Companion Cube from Portal. I built the model from scratch, using photos of the cube from the game as reference, then texture mapped it to match the one from the game.

I've made it into a hollow box, which you can use to store small stuff, like keys, secret maps, wedding rings, plutonium, ect.

You should get it printed in Color Sandstone, as it comes completely colored, no painting required! If you really want to paint it, I would suggest you get a "White, Strong, Flexible" print of my other Companion Cube model, as it makes a tougher and more easily paint-able Cube. You will need some form of Glue to put this version of the Cube together as well.

It's hard to see, but I put a faint picture of the Cake inside the box.

Please use this template to order a customized signet ring. I can add in initials to one of the other symbols you see here, or create a new symbol to your specifications. Please note that the ring and the impression that it makes are mirror images of each other - letters that look right in an impression come from a seal engraved backwards. If you are trying to design your own symbol precisely, please constrain the drawing to an 3/4" diameter circle, and all lines for raised wax should be a minimum of 0.040" wide. This is like drawing with a dull pencil.

Caution: remove signet rings from your hand before using to make an impression. The ring will get hot. Please be careful to avoid burns when using hot wax.

Quality sealing wax is available through our main website.

In some rare instances, Shapeways stainless steel rings have caused a reaction called "tea staining." This is a (not permanent) brown mark on the skin caused by a chemical reaction with the bronze binder. So far only one customer has reported this, and research shows that it depends on skin chemistry - some people always get it, most people never do. Some solutions for people concerned with this are coating the skin contact area with clear nail polish, gold plating, or getting the ring made in silver.

New contest: send in photos of our seals and rings "in the wild" and win free wax if we use them! Showing the product clearly and creativity are strongly encouraged. By submitting photos, you grant Lightbringer Designs LLC the non-exclusive right to use it as we see fit, you will get photo credit. Private message for details.

Custom seals are also available

Here is a tower-like candelabra, which has a housing for an LED and coin battery (both supplied by purchaser). While the piece is lovely and interesting on its own, a shade is available, sold separately, in the shop to diffuse the light and provide more character.


Directions for assembly:

When you look at the housing where the coin battery slips in, you will notice that there are three supports that define this space. Two look the same, and one looks a little different. Let's call the one that looks different the "back support".

Get yourself an a standard 5mm LED. Any colour is good - your choice. For the brightest, I would recommend a super bright white or an ultra bright white. But for fun, know that blue and green LED's look very nice with the moon shade if you have bought it also :) Notice that one of the wires coming from the LED is longer. This is the "positive" wire.

Insert the wires of the LED down through the top hole in the candelabra, and wrap the "positive" wire around the "back support" taking care that it is placed so that it will only touch the battery at this place and no other.

Bend the other wire in a such a way that it will touch only the topside of the battery.

Get yourself a 2cm diameter, 3 volt coin battery. The ones I use are described by this code: CR2025. Insert this battery, negative side up, into the LED Candelabra housing.

Your Candelabra should immediately turn on nicely! Note that you can slide the battery slightly away from the back support and this will turn the light out.

If you have purchased the shade, this is very easy to twist on. Simply drop the shade down allowing its slots to slide over the three housing supports. Then twist the shade to secure it fits tightly.

Enjoy!

A custom Fisher-Price clockwork record player record - plays "Still Alive" from Portal! The tune and model were all generated in Processing. Some people have asked for some more details on the way I made the model: I started with measuring out the discs that came with our player, they're injection moulded and all seem to have quite close tolerances which gave me a great interest in getting the right size for my model. Once I worked out that it might be possible I moved on to setting up the notes so I could work out a tune. I spent quite a long time with a tone generator and a toothpick (driving my wife half crazy in the process) until I had worked out the frequencies of the notes that the music box part of the player could make. I made the tone generator in Processing using the Beads library. I found that, although there are 22 separate notes on the music box there are only 16 unique notes, 6 are doubles. I've assumed that this is so that the notes can be played more quickly - due to the mechanism in the player 'tone arm' there's a risk of a missed note or jam if only one track is used and the pips (knobs? dots?) are too close together. Once I had this information I made Processing sketches (Beads again) to make up new tunes and also check that I had the right notes by playing back one of the existing discs (good job I checked since I had two notes wrong...) with note positions copied from a photo of the disc. Working out the new tune was complicated since there isn't a full chromatic scale available so some tunes simply can't be played even if you shift the key up and down, I wasn't able to get the rest of the 'Still Alive' tune, for example. The tune repeats twice around the disc and wraps so it keeps playing (for as long as the spring lasts) Once the tune was done I had to transform from linear note positions which I'd used to work out the tune (the sketch looks like a music stave but with each line being a note on the available scale) into polar coordinates around the disc and verify the dimensions. I created a blank disc by 'lathing' the vertex-by-vertex profile I measured using vernier calipers around an axis in Processing and exporting it for later use. The "notes" are added onto the blank disc by compositing some boxes that I generate in Processing from the notes with the pre-rendered disc which is stored as an STL file - here I used the Unlekker library for both export and import/combine/re-export. Once this is done it can be uploaded directly in Processing to Shapeways. ...and believe it or not that's the short form and entirely skips my (mis)adventures in Blender, Autodesk 123D, Solidworks... At some point I'd hope to be able to make at least some of the code available but it's in a really bad state at the moment so I'd like to tidy it up before I release anything...

Wire mesh whose contour is your head profile at 1:1 scale.

Just (1) take a side view head photo,
(2) limit the extension of the profile and
(3) indicate a reference for the scale. The only limit is the max. size available for the chosen material.

Next, the three steps in detail:

1) Avoid low resolution and bad focused images. It's better to make the photo with the zoom/tele, filling all the frame with the head. No glasses (they won't be modelled and hide part of the nose) and lips closed (teeth aren't very artistic).

2) Crop the image to know the limits you want for the profile. They should be a point in the forehead and other in the chin/lower jaw. Or, instead of cropping, you can paint over the image to mark those points. Also you must indicate in the form the minimum and/or the maximum diameter of the object. The only limit is the max. size available for the materials: Strong&Flexible (23x18x31cm). So I'll keep you informed about the necessary changes and I'll ask for your approval.

3) To know the real dimension of your profile there are many methods. You can put a ruler over your sideburn/ear when making the photo. You can also use another object as you indicate its dimensions.

These pieces have been redesigned, as seen on the close up picture, to make them more affordable to buy the set of one side. You could order the other side in a contrasting colour, or dye the pieces yourself.
This has been done to save on the start up costs, and also by having a revised wall thickness, plus the amount of detail has been reduced to keep the total of 'triangles' to under 1,000,000.
All the pieces were designed with the smallest wall thickness available which is the WSF. Most of the piece is 1.08mm but were the indentations are the wall thickness is reduced to .7mm.
The head of the Knight is solid.
My original idea was to have the top of the pieces made smooth and polished, while the base is left with a textured finish.

Ball Maze iPhone Case


Low battery ? dying of boredom but can’t play games on your iPhone ? Well there is something interesting at the back of your phone… A Dual Ball-Maze Game !!!


This iPhone Case has a dual ball-maze game and both are connected so that the balls can travel from one maze to another … long lasting fun! You will get three plastic balls with this case but metal balls are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. You can use bearing balls.


The balls never fall out from the maze. To add or to remove the balls, simply remove your phone from the case and you will see two holes on the inside of the case. Just drop the balls in the hole and place your phone back in the case. This will keep the balls locked inside the maze.


The case grabs all four corners and the belly of your phone. The gap in between these claws keeps the lateral keys from being scratched while you push your phone in.

This is a 15 needle / tine 8mm Garter Bar: (The two 15 needle version (30 tine) is also available in this store.) A garter bar is used on a knitting machine to remove the knitted fabric from the needles, turn it around, and replace the knitted fabric back on the needles. The ability to do this for an entire section of fabric (not just one needle) is necessary for garter stitches, and some lace patterns and cables. It can also be used if you have a need to temporarily remove a project from the machine. The Bond company used to sell a garter bar for this purpose but it has not been available in a long time. This garter bar is based on the original Bond design and works the same way. It fits 8mm machines. Purchase the number of sections you need, depending on the number of needles in your typical project. Any number of sections can be used. The sections fit together and should be secured together using a piece of 1/4” threaded rod with nuts and washers on the ends. Threaded rod is inexpensive and can be purchased at a hardware store. The rod should be cut to the length of the assembled garter bars, with enough room to add a nut and washer at each end. Note that this just needs to hold them together for convenience, it doesn’t need to be very tight. The garter bars are offered only in the "polished" materials so the yarn can slide more easily on and off the garter bar.

This is a ring with a gear on the face. It is primarily directed at the Steampunk audience, but it would also be appropriate as a gift for someone mechanically inclined. This is the male version, with a gear sticking out - you could use it with hot wax to make a seal, though in my personal opinion, the female cavity version should produce a much nicer looking impression.

If desired, I could make a matched pair of the male and female gear rings that would fit together, for something like a Steampunk wedding. Such a thing would require a special order. Please send private message if interested.

To obtain quality sealing wax, please click here. I personally think it would look best in one of the metallic colored waxes, particularly Copper.

Caution: remove signet rings from your hand before using to make an impression. The ring will get hot. Please use caution when working with fire and hot wax to avoid burns.

In some rare instances, Shapeways stainless steel rings have caused a reaction called "tea staining." This is a (not permanent) brown mark on the skin caused by a chemical reaction with the bronze binder.
