Hyperboloid

thingiverse

A hyperboloid, or mathematical surface in three dimensions, is the focus of this quadric surface object created for multivariable calculus studies. Each point on the hyperboloid has two lines crossing through it, both belonging to the surface. Additionally, rotating a line around a skew one can generate a hyperboloid. The model was constructed using Autodesk Inventor and printed via MakerBot Thing-O-Matic.
