Geodesic Dome
thingiverse
I crafted my initial geodesic dome with Autodesk's 3DS Max Design 2011, inspired by Buckminster Fuller's designs. Exporting the model to .STL, I scaled it in replicator-G for printing on Makerbot ToM with Stepstruder MK6, a process that took 45 minutes. The dome, lacking support material at the top, surprisingly held its structure. Its unique construction of smaller rings building towards the top was quite fascinating. For display purposes, consider using it as a toothpick holder on your dinner table, sparking conversation among guests.
