Description

Infinity cube with strong hinges that won't break easily. This cube is designed with a lot of slack, so that it moves freely. I designed this after having several fails with other models, where the hinges would break when trying to loosen them after printing. Hopefully, this design will print well for everyone! These models and openscad source file can also be downloaded from https://github.com/jhpieper/sturdy-infinity-cube Cube Sizes 16: S 20: M -- try this first! This is the most common size. 24: L 30: XL 36: XXL Print Settings Printer: Anet AM8 Rafts: No Supports: No Brim: No (but consider using hairspray) Resolution: 0.2 – including first layer Infill: 20% – or more if you like it to be more heavy Filament: Rainbow PLA looks fabulous Notes: This model is optimized for 0.2 layer height, including the first(!) layer. I use no brim and no supports, but hairspray to ensure good adhesion. Slicer Settings: Layer height: 0.2 Make sure the first layer is 0.2 (e.g. First layer height = 100%) Infill: 20% Supports: None Brim: None Post-Printing The hinges should bent quite easily after printing, with the hinges on the front and back side being more tight due to the orientation. Just work the cube a few times and everything should be quite loose. Category: Toys & Games
