LeMarchand Icosahedron

We have such sights to show you…

20 equlateral black acrylic triangles,

10 unique designs on paired faces,

Laser cut on a 30w laser on a lowrider 4

12 3d printed connectors,

lots of m3 cap head screws

Rub’n’buff antique gold wax

Came out nice I think.

For the curious for whom a 6 sided puzzle box just isn’t enough.

That’s a very nice object, I absolutely don’t know what it does, but I kinda want one, which is probably a good sign :slight_smile:

I also really like the mix of cnc-ed parts and 3d printed parts, nice conception

One small thing though, I find the small see-through gap between panels a bit disturbing, maybe some full-lenght 3d printed connectors spanning along the edges would hide this gap?

No kidding!

Ya what they said :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

I went to do some more lasering today and was struggling to get through 3mm ply with previously good settings.

I think I see the problem

Someone needs more air assist!

To be fair I definitely had it on for the cuts but think I might have it off for the engraves. 2 minutes with cue tips and acetone and we’re back in business.
