Sew easy!

Lattice structures normally are intended to optimize functional parts by making them light-weight and strong by filling the inside with a complex structure. This is used in aerospace technology to save on fuel while flying and still maintaining structural integrity and strength of the parts that are optimized.

Nowadays these structures can be achieved with metal 3D printing (laser sintering, laser melting and the like). But these structures are also interesting from a design perspective. The pure beauty of them inspires to use these structures in architecture, fashion or other fields.

Here are my tests with different topologies, printed on a Formlabs Form2 (SLA printing) with clear UV resin. If you want to create your own structures head over to NTopolgy (https://www.ntopology.com) they have a beautiful free tool for that.

You will find more footage next week on my Instagram, Facebook and Youtube accounts.

I hope you got inspired like me and get hands-on designing. Let me know in the comments what projects you came up with.

I wish all of you a merry Christmas!

This year was a wild ride for me with many learnings, now it’s time for retreat and reflection.
Thanks to everyone for a great community.
I wish you happy holidays and a great New Years start!

I've just posted some circular knitting needles that are very short, for things like gloves and socks. (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2695231) Saves you from having to use double pointed needles. I've included a couple of different sizes and lengths, but let me know if you need something different and I can add to the collection.

Hey everyone,

I decided to open up the bobbin holder for commercial use, please give proper credit to me (linking back here, and using the printout tag) when using the design.

Enjoy the design!

Cheers RobotMama
