thingiverse
Tower 3 showcases 168 foundational building blocks - all prime numbers under 1000, neatly arranged on 16 identical layers resembling prisms. Interestingly, their cumulative sum from 3 through 18 also adds up to a precise 168. Tower 2 offers dynamic displays, showcasing any continuous series of 130 prime numbers derived from the comprehensive set beneath 10000. In the instance given here, it prominently showcases consecutive primes right after those shown in Tower 1. On the other hand, the miniature Tower 4 was crafted by delicately pruning off Tower 1's upper 6 levels to reveal an eye-catching display of its initial 33 prime numbers. A clever customization tool is available within the provided OpenSCAD code - changing a single parameter in tower_2.scad effortlessly allows you to experiment with distinct sets of prime numbers, showcasing versatile applications of this intriguing numerical system.
