This 3D model represents a compound of a cube and an octahedron, inspired by a shape I discovered in a Wikipedia article. The geometric interplay between the two forms creates an elegant symmetry. The model prints easily without supports. It’s also fun to spin on your fingertips, making it both a mathematical exploration and a playful object!

Print Settings:

Supports: None
Infill: Gyroid, 10%
Brim: A brim is recommended to prevent adhesion issues. If you’re still experiencing problems, try increasing the brim width and adjusting the brim-to-object gap for better results.

FYI - I also included a 3MF for a BambuLab P1S with a 0.4mm Nozzle, as seen in the photos.

Feel free to leave a comment or reach out if you have any questions. I’m here to help.

Have fun! 🥳
