Structure without Support
Similar to my other Tensegrity Table, but with a better looking design. I woke up one day and kind of saw this in my head, so I modeled it as soon as possible. Still looking for the time to print it out, but I'm sure it won't cause too much trouble as there are no steep overhangs.
How to assemble
Materials:
- 3 longer strings -- outer
- 1 shorter string -- center
- 1 base -- I recommend the ring, there's no need for the extra filament in the middle
- 1 top -- Orient this model 180° for printing, the file comes as assembled (upside-down)
1.) Start with choosing a suitable center string length, and getting that slotted in, making sure that the arm of the top does not drop below into the ring of the base. This will give you an idea of the length of string needed for the outer tensioners.
2.) Get the outer strings cut & tied now that you know the correct length (approximately), then insert all three into the base, pulling them tight into the c
