Magnetic Tile Construction Set

thingiverse

Geometric tiles that join together via magnetic inserts empower anyone to unleash their imagination and turn into makers. Build houses, buildings, cities, pyramids, and anything else you can envision constructing. Each piece is printed without support. A hollow cavity in each side of the tile allows for a pause in printing to insert a cylindrical magnet. Printing should be paused right after 5mm. You will need one 3mm diameter magnetically charged cylindrical magnet per side of each tile created. One Square tile requires four magnets, one Triangle tile needs three magnets, and so on. Any 3mm magnet less than 12mm long works. I have also developed inserts for a few tiles to expand your creative possibilities even further. Add detail and definition to your construction creations now! I am uploading the common geometries of Square, Triangle, Right Triangle, and a 4-Square that can be used for more complex construction ideas. Floor/Wall, Doorway, and Window inserts are also available for the Square tiles. New shapes/pieces will be added as time allows. If anyone has geometric shapes they would like to see next, please let me know!
