Fractal cubes

Fractal Cubes I've successfully constructed three distinct cubes using fractal math and the Mandelbulber2, FIJI, and MeshLab programs. Each cube boasts unique characteristics that set it apart from its counterparts. Fractal mathematics is renowned for producing highly unpredictable results, occasionally yielding designs suitable for 3D printing. To test the limits of this creation, I stacked the three cubes on top of each other. To my surprise, it was a feasible feat. No support structures were employed, and only 5% infill (zig-zag) was used. However, a solid base plate is crucial to minimize shaking when printing the top cube. My base plate measures 3 mm in thickness, and using Ultimaker Cura 4.4.0, I set it up with 10 top layers and 8 bottom layers (each layer measuring 0.2 mm). The results are impressive, with no noticeable issues. This towering model stands approximately 22 cm high, but scaling it down to 15 or 12 cm may be a more practical approach.
