tensegrity desk toy 3d models

Fully printable tensegrity, no strings needed. It hasn't been designed to support any weight, however it is OK to put some grams on top(see image). If you are interested in adding some weight, message me. I may be able to improve the...

Here is my take on the tensegrity table, a print in place version !To tension the mechanism, turn the little nobs in the center using pliersI recommend printing the file with built-in support, they are very easy to removePrinted fine on my Prusa Mini...

My take on "impossible" tensegrity sculptures :D Tensegrity sculptures seem to defy gravity at first glance, rising above expectations with an air of defiance. They hold themselves up thanks to the tension in the strings, which is precisely what...

This tensegrity table includes a ratchet system on the bottom to easily string and tension the table without having to fiddle with the height of each corner. A single 0.7 mm (0.029 in) diameter monofilament fishing line snakes through the interior...

I found this tensegrity concept pretty fascinating and tried to print a model i found on Thingiverse. Unfortunately the I couldn't get the threads to stick with glue, so I decided to design my own version using M3 screws to attach the thread. Attach...

This is another tensegrity table that creates an illusion of floating in mid-air, without any visible supports. Version 2 features a revised central support angle, shifted from 45° to 60° to enhance separation between the two faces. Print one...

These two connected tensegrity structures pull on each other. You can give them different hights and angles. Start with the tension of the two lateral threads (1 and 2), then the central thread (3) and finish with the external (4).Longer...

This intricate design is inspired by all those mesmerizing floating tensegrity illusions, and I'm thrilled to share that it consists of 3 separate parts that will leave you awestruck. The beauty of these 3 parts lies in the fact that they never...

Saw a tensegrity table online and got inspired to build one that could actually hold a decent amount of weight. The struts were printed with carbon PLA filament, while the base was printed in regular PLA. To prevent flexing on the corners due to...

Here is a rewritten version of the text: Building a Simple Tensegrity Sculpture Made Easy: A Step-by-Step Guide Using Solidworks. To create this sculpture, I employed the use of arms and bases that are easily attachable with hot glue or rubber...

Saw a tensegrity table on here and was inspired to make one that could actually hold a decent amount of weight. The struts were printed with carbon PLA and the base was printed in normal pla. Use a lot of infill when printing the bases because the...

Do you want a floating tensegrity table that doesn't wobble like a banker? Of course you do. This is the table for you. Watch the video to see how its done.</p> <p>The Drum is used to quickly adjust the angle of the table. The center line wraps...

Another variation on tensegrity tables that everyone has been printing. In general, most of them I've seen are interesting but really, really ugly! This is an attempt to make something more attractive looking. see: ...

Tensegrity structure for ur gf/bf or e-girl. Pretty easy print, hardest part is getting the ropes to be exact same length. If you want it SFW just cut the letters out in slicer.</p> <p>Mine is a bit angled coz i accidentaly used the old version of...

Inspired by Kevin Michael Sayers' "Impossible Table," which applies the structural concept of Tensegrity, a decades-old idea. Assembling it involves: Print two plates flat on the print bed. Print two arms flat on the print bed (multiple options...

The Ultimate Thrill Ride [Tensegrity] The tiny hangers are surprisingly robust and handle significant compression with ease, so I opted to print them at 100% fill density to ensure maximum strength. To secure the hangers to the base, I employed a...

I discovered this tensegrity concept pretty captivating and attempted to print a model I found on Thingiverse. Unfortunately, I was unable to get the threads to stick with glue, so I decided to design my own version using M3 screws to attach the...

Therefore, one should have one or the other spare nozzle in stock.I chose a very special place ;-) to keep my three spare nozzles for my 3D printers: the outlets for the nylon threads of the support and stabilization points for this tensegrity...

I like this one best! This object is not about a function that is to be fulfilled (carrying a table top or bowls etc.) but only about the principle "Tensegrity". The thread between the two hands - besides the three threads connecting the upper and...

This is another Tensegrity Table, but instead of one wire holding the upper part up and multiples pulling it down, it uses 3 to hold “up” and gravity to pull down. &nbsp;An optical illusion, though it only takes perhaps 10 seconds to figure it out.

Now you have a fully functional tensegrity ghost structure. Design Choices: Our process started with the prompt to create a tensegrity structure of our own design. Our initial planning was on GoogleDraw and looked like this:  After our concept was...

This is a phone stand I designed based on impossible tensegrity structures It took me a few attemps to make it like it is now. It's made to be assembled easily, it doesn't require screws. Glue isn't necessary either but you could glue the pieces...

Inspired by various models on the subject of tensegrity, I have designed another one ... ... a construction that represents a conventional round table. Dimensions: tabletop Ø150mm, base Ø 80mm, height about 140mm. To increase stability there are 4...

At the time, the 3D printing community was obsessed with tensegrity structures so I decided to put that idea at the centre of my design and this idea eventually evolved into the three designs that make up this project. However the third of the...

Made a floating planter using old parts from my tensegrity table! Print normally, i included screenshot of how I oriented the legs, you can print them flat but I found this way to have the highest strength and aesthetic. Play around with the rotation...
