Octahedron puzzle

thingiverse

Here's an octahedron puzzle I made, based on a vintage wooden puzzle that had been collecting dust in my workshop. All the components are intricately interlocked, making it challenging to disassemble without rotating the crucial lock piece first. It's incredibly simple to print and designed with calibration in mind for hassle-free assembly. I took some photographs as a handy guide to help assemble it correctly. The hardest part to assemble is the middle cross; getting it together the right way requires patience and finesse. Here are the component parts you'll need: 1. 3_1_lock: This one's essential for keeping everything locked in place 13 pieces of 3_1: These smaller components help build out the octahedron shape 6 pieces of 5_1: Add a bit more depth to the structure with these slightly larger parts 4 pieces of 5_2: A couple more slightly larger pieces to fill in some gaps 4 pieces of 7_1: Getting close to finishing up! Use these mid-size pieces to reinforce the shape 2 pieces of 7_2: Just two larger components needed for stability and structure 2 pieces of 9_1: The largest components, used to create a solid base 1 piece of 9_2: Finally, this large piece completes the octahedron You'll need all 33 individual parts to build this challenging puzzle.
