Remix of "Floating" tensegrity table with built in tensioning mechanism (glued version)

prusaprinters

<p>I did this remix to avoid the use of screws and nuts, except for the tension M3 screws.</p> <p>Small adjustments here and there: various rounding, sacrificial bridges on the top table, modified thread paths to facilitate tensioning. The shuttles must be threaded M3, but if you do not have the right tool, you can use the shuttles of the original design which are completely compatible.</p> <p>There is also a lower cover for those wishing to cover the openings for adjustments. I will try to print it in TPU, so as to also have a non-slip base.</p> <p>It is important to avoid the use of difficult-to-glue filaments. PLA is excellent, but I preferred PET for the superior elasticity and stiffness.</p> <p>To firmly join the arms to the bases I used superglue and a clamp.</p> <p>To tension the structure I used black dental floss.</p> <p>For general assembly instructions, refer to those of the original project that you find here: <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/24609-floating-tensegrity-table-with-built-in-tensioning">https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/24609-floating-tensegrity-table-with-built-in-tensioning</a>.</p> <p>[EDIT 03.22.2020]<br/> Top cover added.</p>
