Mount this part on a high airflow 80mm PC-fan.
Click your Gyro the Cube in the Center.
Watch it move on its own :-)

Please Note!
Fan and grills not included!
It works best if the first axles on the cube is aligned vertically.
The motion produced by this is not (yet) very interesting.
But after tinkering with this for a very long time, I owe it to the fans to pre-release it.
Thank you for your patience.

Use fan grill on both side of your fan to prevent injuries!
Make sure the Gyro the Cube is mounted tightly before applying power to the fan!
Use ate your own risk!
If you don't know what you are doing, then PLEASE DON'T!
To control motion use a PWM controller for your fan.

Julia Vase 002 Flow
Flow, an easy and relaxed, not too intrusive centerpiece.

This dry flower vase was derived from the Julia Fractal Set.
Instead of high iteration full color imagery as is common, one can also trace a line over the lower iterations.
Then by slowly altering the input values, we are morphing the fractal while traveling the Z-axis.
And beautiful and elegant forms appear.

Circa 12.5 cm high with 1mm thick walls, this is suitable for all Strong & Flexible materials.
I recommend the polished.

Part of the Julia Vase collection.

These remains tell no tale..
but ever wondered what happens,
when a snake eats its own tail ?
In this tale, the tail is fully gobbled up but still hanging freely.

For the python go here, for the pendant here.

Gyro the Cube (XS) with loop.
Sized at 2.5cm/1" this makes for a fiddly, yet subtle keyfob or pendant.
Or get a pair as earrings!

As with the original the cubes the hinges need to be put in place after you receive it.
And as this is really tiny, this might be a bit fidgety ;-).
I will work on some instructions/tips.

This is the corner stand for the XL 10cm Gyro the Cube model.
It should have enough clearance to easily place and pick-up the Cube.

This is a solid version and uses quite a lot of material.
I will try to improve the amount of material used, to reduce the price a bit, but this may negatively affect stability.

The stand has been tested on a home printer and this works nicely.
The Shapewqays print should be the same/better, I will be testing that soon.

Inspired by all the I-design, I opted for something a little different:
Meet the Universal Wrist Device, made from U's for you.

Turn any phone into a wrist-mounted device!
Yes, finally a real com-device like the ones pictured in Sci-fi! ;-)

Arbitrary rotation of the device, use your device in portrait or landscape mode.

An Ideal way to keep the phone nearby but your hands free.
Comes in handy during hiking and biking, but also in your work-shop or kitchen.

The model is printed as two parts that click together.
And both are customizable for their own purpose!

Eh, what?

Well, currently shown:
A wrist clip and the holder for my phone; a SE Vivaz.
The phone can easily be turned to landscape or portrait mode.

But the wrist clip could be tailored to your wrist. And the holder to your phone !

So do you have a phone starting with an I or something completely different?
No worries, U can design your own clip :-)
(more info on this later)

But wait, you don't need a wrist clip, but something different?
To clip onto your bicycle, car, cat, wife?
Anything is possible !
(more info on this later)

The current coupling design should easily click into place.
It has enough resistance to stay put, but allows the device to be rotated to an arbitrary position.

But why?
Because I needed something like this :-)
