are tensegrity tables stable 3d models

I was playing around with some ideas for tensegrity furniture in my house and this desk was one of my doodles.

Humans construct retro rockets using tensegrity structures, weaving them together with precision-cut threads from sewing kits, meticulously tied into secure knots at each joint.

A simple 12 node tensegrity model. ...Will hold with or without glue, note that the rubber bands will lose elasticity after a few weeks.

Tensegrity derived from tension and integrity, in that the integrity of the structure is derived from the balance of tension not compression The planter will be formed from two identical 3D printed elements either of which can be used to display the...

There are two versions of the design available, one with DIY supports and another without, I'm likely not skilled enough yet to get my slicer to create supports precisely as I envision them. I've also included a link to the OnShape design file for...

Tensegrity is a provocative concept that has sparked heated debates among architecture enthusiasts, thanks in large part to Buckminster Fuller, who championed this innovative idea. This groundbreaking notion was first introduced by Fuller's student...

Tensegrity came into being through a combination of balls and sticks. ...The material composition is predominantly comprised of sticks, accounting for 100% of the total, while the filling within the balls makes up only 20%.

I saw lots of the Tensegrity Structure online and in here. But I wanted a square on so design this on. Two pieces to download. ... I use super glued and a small nail to align the two pieces

I Designed a Simple Tensegrity Structure Based on a Lego Sculpture That Can Be Found Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xbnrEqMr5Y Thanks for Watching, I Hope You Enjoyed It!

For this model, finished quantities are below: Pin - Qty 4 - First Color Choice Pin - Qty 4 - Second Color Choice Arm - Qty 1 - First Color Choice Arm - Qty 1 - Second Color Choice A snip of 1.75mm filament for the initial string anchor is needed (or...

Replacing the one pair of hooks in the center of the back of the cloud and of the wave with two pairs of hooks on each side, balancing out the tension forces created by the two pairs of hooks in the front of the assembly.(Below, top to bottom:...

Human beings create Tensegrity Toppers to facilitate development of easy-to-assemble kits in STEM/STEAM curriculum that demonstrate ways to construct these types of structures; just attach standard #2 pencils or wood dowels/carbon fiber rods for the...

This is a Tensegrity Lamp I designed for my A-level 3D design project. ...Unfortunately because of the events last year and continuing in to this year I have not been able to make it so I`m putting it on here so someone else could make it.

It consists of the following piece types and quantities:x2  compression pieces.x2 base.For a complete set, you will need to print all 4 pieces, have a string or a ball chain (with 3mm diameter balls) and a rubber band or traction...

I've come across Tensegrity structures by Buckminster Fuller, namely the 6 strut sphere and 12 strut cuboctohedron models. I'm currently working on perfecting the icosahedron design, feel free to remind me if you're interested. Some suggestions for...

"The cat upstairs has a longer tail," she said, to which I asked again, "What else?" you respond: "ahhh, i see, the cat below is smaller" A good gift for mothers day *** The pieces have to join with adhesive and place the threads as in other...

This incredible Tensegrity Physics Toy achieves an amazing "levitating strings" effect without relying on magnets. The maximum diameter of the strings should be precisely 1.5 millimeters to maintain the illusion. ...For exact string length and further...

This is a two-piece tensegrity arrangement that gives the impression to float in mid air in an almost impossible way. It consists of 4 parts for ease of printing. Use three thin threads to balance the forces. Please print <strong>Part C with at...

DO NOT USE WITH REAL FLAMES - FOR DECORATION USE ONLY Introducing the tensegrity menorah, the piece holding the candles appears to inexplicably float in the air against the pull of gravity. A great printing project just in time for Hanukkah!  Fits...

As soon as a light source is placed on this table, it will cast a beautiful shadow. I've also split the other four files into manageable parts: two bases and two brackets. ...If you want to print each part separately, simply insert the bracket into the...

My go at a tensegrity. Pentagon for better stability compared to triangle. Recess on the outline of bottom and top to have only one line going all around on the outside for more easy assembly. ... ...And in all: 50mm Pentagon for quick print time for...

Looking around the "verse" I found this table and really liked how the arm options looked. I decided to remix it and add a Star Trek themed spin on it for the visor to sit on. To create this, I printed it out, sanded it and prepared it for...

These fragile tableware items can cause injuries if not handled carefully; they may fall off vertically and shatter, or get accidentally knocked over during work. ...Proper handling is crucial in any setting where table glasses are present.

If you are going to make it you will require 3 approximately 81mm (knot-to-knot) pieces of string and 1 approximately 46mm piece of string. This is what I have on mine and it sits mostly level, although one piece of string could do with being...

However, this explanation is a bit simplistic because it's actually completely stable in any direction. In fact, gravity doesn't even matter - it's still stable. This object is lovely to play with and marvel at how the upper piece is held solely by...

Inspired by the "impossible table", this stool is built to sustain the weight of a person with two tripods mounted upside-down for an optimal force transfer. As it is build around climbing rope which are elastic by nature, this stool is naturally...
