See how I combined folding models and multicolor 3D prints to create some complex shapes and fascinating designs.
STL files at MyMiniFactory : mmf.io/makeanything
About a month ago, I tried out this technique of layering 3D prints of different colors to build multicolor parts, and it worked great! Since then, I've combined that trick with folding prints to achieve complex polyhedra with colorful and smooth surfaces on every face. I pull some other cool tricks as well, so make sure to watch it all!

THE WAY YOU DESIGNED THE SNAPPING PART OF THE FOLDABLE DESIGN IS SO FRICKING COOL
It's time to patreon. You deserve it.
I really appreciate that this channel focuses on creativity and actually making things, and is not limited to reviews of things to buy. That's what 3D printing is all about, no? Great job.

You definitely need to try and make a 3d printed phone case...with a puzzle!
How about a modular puzzle on the back, so you can have different types and designs of puzzles?
Sliding or maze would be cool
@@deletedhobo7405 The easy way would most likely be cutting the 1 layer he usually does into puzzle pieces and get a jigsaw out of it to insert in the normal puzzle. Then the more advanced idea could be adding a sliding puzzle or make a maze

earth is a Colorful, Foldable 3D Printed Polyhedra! : YES
@Aspect516 yes earth may also be a dinosaur but i think its a Colorful, Foldable 3D Printed Polyhedra!
this is sarcasm polyhedron. “Polyhedra” is the plural form of the word.
You_just maybe there is more then one earth
Earth is a potato
@@andreaquadrati i respect your opinion but i think its a Colorful, Foldable 3D Printed Polyhedra!
These are absolutely brilliant! I love love love how you keep pushing the boundaries of whats possible with 3d printing, you are so inspiring!

Make a hexaflexagon with the 3d printer please!
You need to see v heart... I think that's the name
@@fossilco.artrelateddocumen331 yep!

But be care ful or you might end up having a hexaflexa mesagon
Weird hexaflex but ok
Wow wow wow wow. As a huge fan of all things polyhedra, this absolutely blew me away. I'm not sure if you ended up doing this, and it wouldn't make a huge difference in the prints, but there is a way to make the dihedral angles exact and not round them to decimal places. Fusion 360 will let you set a parameter equal to PI, which can then be used in another parameter to create an expression like for the dihedral angle of a dodecahedron, π − arctan(2). When doing this everything should be in radians not degrees.
You may have already figured this out, but i thought it might be helpful.
Keep on making awesome stuff Devin! You are truly inspiring!
I didn't figure that out, I'm not particularly math-oriented so thanks for sharing! In any case, it seems rounding to the thousandth of a degree did the job at this scale :)
Wat what wat wet wat did you say?
Ima confuse
I've been printing dodecahedrons for the last couple of days. You can input "180-atan(2)" as a parameter in Fusion 360 (with degrees set as the units). You don't need to use radians unless you want to.
@Make Anything thanks for this great video. I just found it. I'm excited to take my dodecahedrons to the next level.
@@skating_stars8173 I wish I was as smart as this thread. lmao.
I wanna see a d20 made with some really cool patterns. I’d make it myself but I actually don’t have a 3D printer yet... :(
Angel Thomas I’m the Dungeon master for my d&d group, and I’m planning on getting a 3D printer at some point. I’ve thought a few times about 3D printing miniatures, but it would also be cool to make a couple of sets of custom dice for my players!
@@EwenHeaton miniature printing is a real mess and really hard, but once you get a good result and that you use the right settings, you can get pretty good results!
yea really big d20 for special rolls! maybe it has things besides numbers for the 1 or 20? Or roman numerals?
Honestly printing miniatures isn't that hard. You definitely need your support settings dialed in though, otherwise it can be basically impossible to remove
@@EwenHeaton you can get some pretty cheap DLP and SLA printers these days. I would highly suggest that rout for miniatures. FDM can and will work but it's not really built for extreamly small details.
Maybe make a 20 sided dice for d&d or Magic: The Gathering?
lucas rademaker I was thinking the same thing! All these decahedrons icosahedrons but no D12s or D20s?
And a demogorgon...
This is just pure genius. Such a cool use of your single layer multi color printing method. Very awesome work, thanks for sharing your process and your files for everyone to print.

I'm not sure if it's funny...

Couldn't be any further from the truth. Glacier national park is growing in size even though we were told it would be completely gone by 2020. Also we are about to enter a solar minimum in the next solar cycle (2020-2031). It is predicted by NASA to be a Maunder Minimum which means little no sun spots or flares which means less energy out put. We haven't had this type of cycle in about 200 years and in fact the "middle ages mini ice age" was a Maunder Minimum. Take it from someone who has been around the block a few times, climate change is a scam. They've been saying this bs since the 60s. Its only gaining steam now because millennials are brainwashed and intellectually lazy.
@@budskipper r/wooosh
@Bryan just triggered he showed why climate change is a scam?
Devin, you are the most positive person I've ever seen.
with the star map you'll need to find the smallest point source you can, there are some pretty bright LED ones out there, though i dont know where to buy them. check out Henry Segerman's video on 'Illuminating hyperbolic geometry'
I would think that if you constructed a similar shape, but smaller and able to go inside, with those LED's at the center of each panel should potentially maybe possibly perhaps yield the results you're looking for??? ( I hope that my uncertainty is clear :-)
A laser without a focusing lens would be perfect for that, as it's a point source of light. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of lasers with an angle remotely wide enough.
When you first showed the unfolded dice and it had integrated locking mechanisms to hold the faces in place I actually said "freaking brilliant" out loud. Amazing work man! Keep pushing the envelope!
Yet again, your creativity is beyond me. Please don’t ever stop. The day I start making money is the day I will start supporting you on your endeavors. Keep inspiring others ❤️
It was just 1 video. And you didn't let me stay even a minute without saying "this guy is brilliant" in my mind. Why don't you have million subs yet?! You deserve every bit of it
This is truly pushing the envelope of 3d printing with a single nozzle! Keep it up!!
You are taking 3D printing to another level lol
One of the most creative channels on 3-D printing thank you for adding so much value
The most creative 3D prints on Earth. Thank you for sharing it all with us!
I REALLY want to see this used for loaded d20, as an awful holiday gift to tabletop enthusiasts.
Another great use of 3D printing technology. You’re inventive use 3D printers continues to amaze me. Thanks sharing all the innovative techniques and all the hard work making these videos!
The globes are so beautiful! Well, all of the prints were beautiful but especially the globe on the brown and yellow stand. Incredible video!
you are literally a math & 3D printing genius!!
Simply amazing. Unbelievable what you can make with a single extruder printer! That’s a lot of cleverness and creativity that goes into your designs. Keep it up!
Yes please do more 3D printed fabric!
Most inspiring - as always. Cheers and thanks!
amazing as always. right now you are one of the very few forging your own path and developing new ways to use and think about 3d printing. great job.
if I could I would give you a billion dollars for just being you.
Yes. Just seeing all the precise geometry researched for this project, really makes Mr. Devon's passion for the project all the more impressive.
@@hotaru8309 exactly. He cares so much about the quality of the videos
@@hotaru8309 I'm glad other people see that. I tutor people in math and I love how casually he talked about polyhedron.
This is so cool and inspiring! Keep pushing the edge of what's possible with 3d printing!
I’m loving these techniques you are showing. Thank you 😊
You are an inspiration man. Totally supporting you on Patreon now. Respect!!!
There is soooooooooo much creativity in this one video, you wayyyyyy blow other CZcams’s out of the water. Great stuff
What about a folding springo!
Sounds like a very fun challenge.
Totally awesome!!! I love this method of getting multi color prints
Some of those look really amazing! Nice work!
That is a great idea! Lots of things could be made by assembling pieces that are printed.
Can you try building modes of atomic structures using some of these techniques? Also, you could create a model of the Mysterium Cosmographicum, which is a model of the solar system using all the platonic solids that were Crated by Johannes Kepler to explain the planet spacings.
hey vsause michael did a video on this
Yes!!!
Devin, thank you for all you do. Being into geometry and mathematics this was just so pleasant to watch(thanks for squeezing in educational stuff as always 😉), keep up the great work and Happy holidays.
wow! great job devon! one of my favorite videos from you. You are so creative with the technique, it blows my mind. very inspiring.
You're so brilliant :0 tbh you are the whole reason I got into 3D pens and now I found my passion so thank you for that and Merry Christmas! :)
I love your enthusiasm!
Thanks for sharing the stl files!
thank you. this helped me to make colored signs.
mmm... lovely geometry :D
Your prints look awesome !
These foldable prints are perfect gift box for valentines Day ❤️
Genius! I love your ideas.
I love this. Do more of these. Any way to like a video twice?
Exceptional work! Love all these prints. Thanks for sharing this with us. Happy holidays!
dude, you are a genius! pushing boundaries all the time! keep it up!
Wow you’ve really outdone yourself this time, that globe is so dope!!
Print a truncated icosahedron (a soccer ball shape)
You are absolutely amazing!!!
You are so creative dude! Keep it up!
You cant even imagine how happy these designs made me! Definitely will try them out!
Devin you are the MAN!
Dude, thats some next level stuff! Amazing!
I probably said that before but you never -- EVER -- cease to amaze! I so want to print a dice now! Congrats man -- you're a genius!
Hi! As it was already said: make holes in your black icosohedron as small as possible. Myself would try just to puncture them with a thin metal needle. Make it hot and it's easy.
My idea is that these folding structures is a good start for some fun light&sound project. Just put some simple square oscillators (with few mid.size speakers) inside and make their volumes and pitches dependable on the light (LDR components instead of timing resistors) and make them fixed and lights - possible to rotate or move. Just a real problem I see here: power sources. It can be batteries but their weights can disbalance a construction. This must be thought out very well.
Oscillators is the simplest part, I can give you good schems. Maybe the power to the rotary part can be "wired" without wires partially... I guess that it possible with a kind of "brush contacts". Or maybe it can be transfered by induction (like modern wireless mobile charger devices).
I'm always in awe of how innovative you are. I wish I had the time money and patience to do things like this!
You are creative on a whole other level
You are a total genious man, I love you. You are so inspiring!
Interesting and entertaining as usual!
These are so cool!
You're an absolute madman. Keep it up :)
Pretty much instantly loaded up that icosahedron file to print! Been loving doing lots of quick prints for xmas gifts and experimentation and the file is only a 3h print at max size so this is awesome! Love your work as well, recently completed the springo skull and its one of my favourite prints so far. Fantastic work as always man!
Thanks! The connectors might become tough to snap together if you scale up.. you may have to scrape them down a bit with an x-acto.
@@make.anything I'm using an ender 3 so max size for me was 140% so shouldn't be too bad but for sure appreciate the advice, cheers! I'll definitely buy the full set soon, but money's a bit tight rn so will probably be after Christmas lol. Sweet idea though, that globe especially is satisfying the low poly vibe I've been hitting recently. Excited to try the multi colour first layer technique soon as well!
This proves the world isn't flat!!! It's obviously an icosahedron! Someone post this video on the flat earth discord.
Look at that quality 👏
I am Speechless thanks for this video this is too good
man you are pushing outside the box! thanks for sharing the techniques.
Hey, thanks for showing my shipping service prints in the beginning! Cool! 😊👌
bought your pack no. 1 Thank-you for your time and effort Awesome
Thanks!
Those are so cool!
Genial! Gracias!
Holy what the! Brilliant!
You could use fairy lights for the light shade as the individual bulbs would each be positioned differently from each of the holes. This could give off different levels of intensity illuminations to represent the different brightness levels of stars. 🔆✨💫🌌
Thanks!!! Downloading those Gerber files done now! I love dodecahedron... And yes I did have to look up that word to spell it... 😆
Mate your ideas a fricken epic. I don’t watch loads of your videos but I know I’m always in for a surprise when I do
Vsauce has already taught me all I need to know about the names and geometric properties of polyhedra. Great video as always.
Really smart using the folding to create 3D shapes using your technique to print in multiple colors, it would take me a entire box of Ritalina to come up with something like that, I wonder if you can do more papercraft like art with this idea or if it just too complex or only limited to platonic solids. Even so you still can aways do some kinda of voxel/low poly art and try to transform in some kinda of puzzleor mr.potato head kinda of toy. Like, trying to create your own animal using a bunch of building blocks or building a castle using bricks and other shapes AKA reverse jenga
Pretty wild man! Love how creative you're getting with these builds
Thanks Jessy, I'll try to keep it up!
Team up with I Like To Make Stuff, you guys together would make magic!
Nice video I`ll make sure to use this information in a future projekt
Some time ago I believe NASA was hosting a contest to develop a vessel to grow plants in space (to study how plants develop without gravity) that could be 3d printed, and I think the one you made with the "spore like sphere" in the middle would make a pretty strong candidate! Awesome work, always innovating the way 3d manufacturing can be used!
This is soooooo cool.
guy your a genius !
100% crazy. Never change, Devin.
You're a freaking genius
Fantastic!
For the large dice, you can dice stack with them if you have enough if you have a cup or Pringle’s can
Your creativity is ever inspiring. Thank you for taking us along in your journey. And the earth in 2022 joke gave me a needed laugh.
super cool!
Very cool!
wow... this is next level 3d printing skill... mind blew @_@
that thumbnail is 👌on point!
Great job. If you want a crisp projection with light, the trick is to use the smallest light you can with the highest output possible. Sharp shadows only show up when the distance between the light source the subject is great but the light is powerful (think of the sun at noon and how crisp the shadows are)
Hi, Devin! Fantastic work, as always. I think that if you printed an internal icosahedron inside your planetarium, you could put a pinhole in each face, which would allow an internal pinhole illumination of each face of the planetarium. That would give you the sharp projection you want, though at a loss of brightness.
hey, just wanted to say how awesome you are, enjoy all your design skills and experiances! one of a solid 3d printer youtube celebrity :D haha
Hello! I love your videos!
probably the most creative guy i know
