Base Ten Blocks - More detail

thingiverse

Hipster's Base Ten Blocks are an incredibly smart idea, and I just wanted a bit more clarity so that from all sides (and the bottom) each group of blocks looked quite distinct as individual blocks.\r\n\r\nIn the end it was much easier to start fresh from scratch than modify Hipster's files because this is geometrically pretty straightforward. But it was Hipster's original idea, and I've just copied it with a slightly different shape.\r\n\r\nNote: the 0100 (10 x 10 or 100-blocks) models come in two flavors: regular and with holes. The "holes" one has natural holes between the individual blocks because the blocks have beveled edges. It might make the nature of the "100 blocks" block more obvious to children i.e., it looks more like 100 blocks instead of one blobby block but also takes much longer to print.\r\n\r\nI created this in Meshmixer and the .mix files are included.
