This one : 42 Dots This print was inspired by the PseudoIsochromatic Plate Color Vision Test (see example in the photos); curiously enough one of the plates in this test features the number 42. This print is not intended to be pseudoisochromatic, but...

This one : 42 Rosetta Cube After the destruction of our civilization, this cube will help future generations by providing the Answer in multiple systems : Hindu-Arabic numerals (that is, "standard" numerals) Chinese (simplified) Tamil Hebrew simple...

In the end, it worked out nicely with a 42 "suspended" inside a translucent cube with an almost holographic effect. I like that the 42 is almost invisible while the cube is sitting on my desk, only becoming clearly visible when I pick it up (the...

The "leaves" are a simple press fit onto the branches, and since they can rotate you must take care to make sure the parts are rotated into the correct orientation; simple adjust the parts until the parts of the "42" line up properly when viewed from...

More versions on the way. This one : 42 Question Arch I feel like this one is a bit of a cheat as it is a modification of Version21. I like both of them though, so there you go!</p> <p>OnShape 3D CAD files :</p> <p><a...

This one : 42 Transparent Question This one requires transparent PLA to work properly; the Answer is revealed when you hold it up to the light at the proper angle. This was a good opportunity to experiment with transparent PLA - really should be...

This one : 42 Rotation (print in place) Five rotating rings, each of which holds a "puzzle piece," show the Answer in silhouette when rotated into the correct position. The effect is difficult to photograph, but easy to see in the print. OnShape 3D...

More versions on the way. This one : 42 Stamp This print has two parts - a handle and a replaceable "stamp head." The idea was to create a generic stamp design in which different stamps could all work with the same handle design. In addition to being...

More versions on the way. This one : 42 Raster In these prints (there are two variations) I create an image using a raster in a manner similar to an old style television set which used a series of lines (varying in vertical thickness) - a raster...

More versions on the way. This one : 42 Lofted Curve The print for this one turned out absolutely beautiful in terms of overall quality - very happy with the result. This one turned out to be a very interesting exercise in 3D CAD; I had to try a...

: This print uses persistence of vision to display a "42" when you turn the crank to bring all the segments together. Unfortunately I did not get a photo of the effect - just more trouble than it was worth. In any case - turn the crank quickly in...

This one : 42 Twist First, I have to admit I cheated a bit on this one. I cracked the top of one of the spirals when fitting the two pieces together and had to use a bit of glue. More info in the print instructions. This print was mostly an exercise...
