Popsicle Choker

STYMMETRY — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 06:50:47 GMT

The Popsicle Choker is a rigid wooden necklace for assembly by the user. Each of the 32 pieces are identical. Can also be worn on the head as wreath. These pieces are currently made from wood due to the unknown tolerances of plastics, but hopefully after some testing it will be available in acrylic (as depicted).

Scrabble Necklace

STYMMETRY — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 06:50:47 GMT

The Scrabble Choker uses a similar but different technique of construction. Each component is cut and etched with a letter and point value, just like real scrabble pieces! Constructing the necklace allows you to express some personality. Anything that can be said in 48 letters is possible! These pieces are currently made from wood due to the unknown tolerances of plastics, but hopefully after some testing it will be available in acrylic (as depicted).

Leaves

Inspired by the natural forms and structure of leaves. An acrylic pendant on sterling silver chain. The chain is 12" long and comes with a 2.5" extender chain. Each leaf measures 1.75"w x 3.5"h. Original design by Brevity.

Classic Tangrams

Bookwyrm — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 16:27:08 GMT

This is a rather large set of tangram pieces for forming figures. None of the pieces of this set, when cut from a rigid material, will fit in a 1.25" choking-hazard-test tube.

Frabjous cutting template pack

zero-waste — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 14:12:05 GMT

Original by George W. Hart http://georgehart.com/sculpture/sculpture.html Remade by Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories http://evilmadscientist.com/article.php/frabjous .svg from vrogy http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:724 formatted for Ponoko by me. A nice wee sculpture to assemble and glue together. I've not actually tried cutting this but have laid out the 30 pieces you need on P2 and P3 - P2 elements are slightly smaller to fit on. Would probably work well in any rigid material.

Mosaic Puzzle

CraftsByOrigamiMarie — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 15:21:27 GMT

This toy has a hexagonal frame and small half-hexagon colored pieces to fit inside it. Since it is my first Ponoko piece, I didn't get the tolerances right on the clips that were supposed to hold the frame together. So it is taped instead. The mosaic pieces are probably too small for a young child.

Spirosketch - functional bracelet and necklace set, drawing tool

PolymathDesignLab — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 04:01:49 GMT

Carry some fun with you everywhere you go! This bracelet and necklace set is also a fully functional drawing tool. Just remove the pendant from its special hook-shaped bail and hold the bangle bracelet down against your drawing surface. Put the tip of a pen through one of the pendant's holes and use the pen to roll the pendant around the inside of the bracelet. Try different holes to see how the pattern changes. I've specially designed the gearing on the Spirosketch to make for a smooth and comfortable inner surface on the bangle. Bangle measures 3.25" across, with a 2.25" inner diameter. Pendant comes on an 18" rubber cord. Note: All of the designs you see in these pictures were drawn with the Spirosketch. If you'd prefer other colors for the bangle and/or pendant, please contact me and I'll see what I can do.

Impossible Penrose triangle

trompe — Mon, 05 Sep 2011 14:56:54 GMT

The "impossible" tribar, also known as the Penrose triangle. This fantastic optical illusion has now been made possible through 3D printing. We have further enhanced the illusion by breaking it into cubes and added the dots of a die. Watch the video: http://youtu.be/1HAqORTBSV0 A truly three-dimensional object, only made possible with a very special design trick. Please be aware that unlike other attempts to create a Penrose triangle, this model does not have any hidden openings nor hidden twists. The model is 7.5" (19 cm) high and will come with a matching stand.

Tesseract

A tesseract is a simulation of the fourth dimension. Essentially a tesseract is to a cube what a cube is to a rectangle.
