Wedgits are a type of children's toy that I played with when I was a kid. They are based on octahedron-shaped building blocks that can be wedged together, hence their name. They're really addictive! There are many files here, but you don't need all of them to start your Wedgits journey. I recommend printing a simple set, as shown in the first two slides above:
- 1 base
- 1 lid
- 1 large size
- 2 medium-sized ones
- 3 small ones
- 4 mini ones
- 5 octahedrons
After completing these steps, you can choose to print these additional extensions:
- A large octahedron
- Small octagonal pillar
- Large octagonal column
- Tilted octagonal column
- Super large diamond
- Super-large rhombus
- Protruding structure
- Hourglass structure
- Build the base
Scale all components to the same proportion — 910% is half the size of the original Wedgits, as shown in the picture.
When printing the base and lid components, there's no need for support, and they should be placed face up.
When printing the smallest octahedron parts, there is no need for support, and any side can be facing up.
When printing all other parts, use a dense grid for support on the outer surface.
Wish you a great time!
