3D Printing a Hyperboloid
Trying out my new time-lapse rig, using a Creative Live! Socialize HD Webcam here is a hyperboloid pencil holder I found on the Thingiverse:
Just over 2.5 hours to print and surprisingly sturdy!

See if you can find a Bucky Ball to print – that would be pretty cool.
Nah…that’s too easy….I’m currently printing my own LHC.
Just out of curiousity, how much do the materials cost to make a model like that?
I didn’t pay attention to the stats when I printed it but is likely $0.25-$0.75 including power, plastic, etc.
A little while ago, the folks at MakerBot posted some estimated costs of 3D printing which is pretty interesting.
Thank you! That’s not bad at all actually
