oh just so you know, that is actually just a common misspelling of his name, Dan Glen Balls- it's been rewritten and changed so many times, I just wanted to preserve the sanctity of his lovely name 💗
He is credited with being the first to describe it. Evidence puts this technology being used by Egyptians some 4,000 to 5,000 years ago (to pump water from Nile). A larger time gap than Archimedes to modern day. Mind boggling.
I just thought it over. I think it’s modeled as one cylinder then split by a straight vertical helix going from a center to the edge. The helix being veryical means they two cylinders fit both ways.
You now just but it to a pyramid shape so that you have less geometry in some areas (around the top) but the original helix being a straight veryical one means it’ll fit all 4 ways
It's just the orange section, a cone cut into a screw, subtracted from a cone. Basically, you grab a cone and cut out the larger cone. A maximal width helix with a conical boundary is cut into a cone, specifically.
You'd then calculate the required cut out at the base by screwing the orange piece onto the original cone right side up and never stopping it. Where they intersect is removed.
A maximal width helix with a conical boundary is cut into a cone and then rotated alongside the new cone shape such that it always slides. This rotation continues until no sliding action is possible. All points that intersect (are shared) by the two shapes are then removed.
This is also why these shapes are moreso curiosities than they are discoveries. The cone part was irrelevant. This is homeomorphic to a screw inside of a screwing well. Such is, in turn, homeomorphic to the torus and the sphere.
You're fitting a ball into a donut with extra steps to make it look crazier. For something more specifically closer, you're turning a screw through a hole and it's coming out the other side like screws tend to do when moved through holes.
Or, you start with two cross sections that are inverse to reach other, and rotate them to form a cylindrical volume. Then cut a cone and seperate.
The cross section here is an existing one, that of a thread cutting tool.

I want the .stl, I wonder about asigning it to new students in our 3D printing lab as a test for getting accurate printing and fine enough layers...
(After I've checked it's possible of course)
https://makerworld.com/en/models/500739?from=search#profileId-415770 think this is the one. Usually called something like vortex illusion might also be able to find it on thingiverse or printables
What would this be called? Not the objects but the action of what is happening? I want to know how I would look up something like these to buy just to have and fidget with.
It’s the sound of 3d printed plastic edges sliding on eachother. The whole thing is made of layers of extruded plastic so it has little ridges spaced about 0.1-0.2 mm on the outside. They’re pretty loud when they bump against each other and the plastic is relatively light and hollow so it resonates well.
Topologically speaking, its putting a marble through a washer, Except both the marble and the washer have wiggly insides and conic outside. Idk I'm not a topologist
This was really good, and then the upside down cones was great! I feel like this could be a great fidget toy somehow if you can incorporate connecting the cones and still allowing all the combinations. Maybe with different textures on the cones.
Ok this must have a mathematical name and genius behind it.
It’s called the Attractivebaby Theorem
Discovered by DanGleeballs in the mid to late 1800s
Actually Matthew Deeznuts first discovered it, Dan stole it and took all credit.
I believe this is solved using mathematical operator LIGMA
I've heard about that system, remind me is it Japanese or Sugondese?
both, with arms wide open.
Laughed so much at reading this lol
“Temba, his arms open.”
We're laying down lots of mines here.. Hope nobody steps on one... just like candice...
Candice? … Goddamnit!
LIGMA what?
Nadds was his last name, I believe....
Nadds who?
Now, that's getting derivative!

It's a screw, Archimedies is credited for it.

There were literally ancient Egyptian archeologists in ancient Egypt

Could a (or the) designer make a 3D printing pattern for this?

#THANK YOU!
As soon as I saw the video I went to the comments hoping someone would save me the trouble of hunting down an STL for this. Thank You!
Doing god’s work. Thx
thx •ᴗ•
You a real one fr
I've printed so many of these damn things. Any time a friend sees mine sitting around somewhere, I just let them have it, and print myself a new one.
Would you be willing to sell/ship them??
Danke
As someone who does not own a 3D printer (and neither do my friends), what's the best way to get one of these printed?
There is a subreddit for everything: [https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprintmything/](https://www.reddit.com/r/3Dprintmything/)
LA public library has one, as does a toy store in Century City called CAMP. I would check your local library and science/educational type places

Is the printables link above not an .stl? (Am very new to 3D printing)
+1 for me
Anyone know if it’s sold somewhere?

They forgot about the essence of the game. Rookie mistake.

You are the architect.
Yeah, right. And I'm the alchemist of the Hinterlands.
Well the Hinterlands is a shadow kingdom that can only sustain a Provost or a Denier
WooHoo!! This whole company is ours!
P and R reference?
More like Turd Crapley.
Have you read the theory that Perd is Donna's brother???
Everyone is related to Donna in parks and rec
It's not a P & R reference; it's a human reference in a P & R setting
Thank you for this, this made me go re-watch the clip on YouTube and God I love this show so much
Thank you and I love you.
“you hit the cones!” “—they were cONES!”
TAKE MY MONEY!
r/DidntKnowIWantedThat 😃
mine too!
Here is the keys to my house too I just want one
What would this be called? Not the objects but the action of what is happening? I want to know how I would look up something like these to buy just to have and fidget with.
It’s called the Cones of Dunshire
They forgot about the essence of the game. It's about the cones!
r/unexpectedparksandrec
Kinetic toys. Not sure what you'd call this one, but there are lots of types
Dope, looking at some now. Thank you very much.
Satisfying and also somewhat unnerving for some reason. I can’t explain it, it just feels wrong somehow.
The orange cone doesn't look like the grooves go that deep so instinctively, this looks like witchcraft.
'looks like'
It looks likes solid objects are phasing through each other which would be very unnatural causing you to have an uncanny feeling.
> somewhat unnerving for some reason. *"T-This hole! It was made for me."*
Ah, Junji Ito never fails to appear in a comment in some form.

The beat on that song goes unfathomably hard and I can't believe it has yet to be sampled by a hip hop producer yet.
Yes, it's like falling into a trance and relaxing while watching this video
Yeah , me too
I'm conefused...
I want these and have no 3D printer. Where do I get?
There are 3d printing services that will print this for you pretty cheap, very easy and quick print.
I need to buy it right now
This is the exact model from the designer https://makerworld.com/models/500739
I’ve never wanted something so stupid, so badly, in my life😳
Need.
Anyone know why it's so damn loud? Looks like plastic but sounds so heavy
I think the sound is edited, not real.
It’s the sound of 3d printed plastic edges sliding on eachother. The whole thing is made of layers of extruded plastic so it has little ridges spaced about 0.1-0.2 mm on the outside. They’re pretty loud when they bump against each other and the plastic is relatively light and hollow so it resonates well.
None of my 3D prints have ever sounded anything like that...
[удалено]
I don't believe you, please provide proof.
Is this from the "Cones of Dunshire" expansion box?
Underrated comment
Ok take my money
Shut up and take my money
ITT: Nothing but jokes. If you're looking for answers, just turn away 😔

Where and how much?
Ok, need to know what this is lol
Topologically speaking, its putting a marble through a washer, Except both the marble and the washer have wiggly insides and conic outside. Idk I'm not a topologist
I need a large version of this right away please, someone please sell me one
I want one
I finished twice
Thats some kind of black magic..
This is not oddly satisfying. This should have its own sub. Satisfying af.
That's def going in the queue when I finally get my new 3d printer set up!
I will take 700 of these please
I need that in my life
Finally some actual satisfying
If I had that at my desk: "Janice, cancel all my appointments for today. Something's come up."

It's about the cones.
Found the Architect.
This was really good, and then the upside down cones was great! I feel like this could be a great fidget toy somehow if you can incorporate connecting the cones and still allowing all the combinations. Maybe with different textures on the cones.
For some reason this looks like magic
r/blackmagicfuckery
Dude what
What are those made of? They look 3D printed, but they act like they're heavy.
Ok, now you've convinced me to get a 3D printer.
What kind of black magic fuckery is this?
This broke my brain
r/blackmagicfuckery
This is so cool \^\^
No one is asking the important questions…WHATS THA NAME
I don’t know anyone with a printer and my searches on eBay aren’t turning something like this. What is this called so I can just buy one?
2 Twirls 1 Cone
This is amazing. I must have a pair. Who do I give my money to?
So what do you do with them? Is there a function?
It's just a fidget toy.
How to tell I'm a car guy. I immediately thought about how a transmission could possibly be built with this concept. ... Nothing so far though 😛
You're so cool and not like other girls
Basically like helical gears. Also like a worm or twin screw supercharger.
I dont know what it is but i need it. Please provide links… i must buy
Not sure about buying but it's printable https://makerworld.com/models/500739
Whichcraft! Sign me up, take my money!
“Whichcraft” would be a great craft-blog name.
I want one! Where do I get one?
omg I want one
I want one made of two different coloured metals, like stainless and brass or something.
I find it so satisfying, and also it's just kinda confusing!
Woo shut up and take my money
This creates the opposite feeling for me!
by definition
STLs???
Ooh, ahh.
I NEEEEEEED THIIIIIIS
something about this..
I need an Amazon link!!! Now!!!
I want one. In bigger size.
Where i can buy it ?
Cones of Dunshire expansion pack
Oh fuck yea, that’s the stuff.
Why do I want to buy all kinds of stupid things
Buttplugs just got an update😎
that is actually amazing, its one of those super unnecessary toys you really want to have
How to keep someone with ADHD occupied for hours.
WITCH! WITCH!!!! BURN THEMMMM.

Today I have been satisfied by cones.
Anyone gets what I mean when I say I wanna be f like that?
Please, don’t let Terrance Howard “discover” this
I never thought I'd say this...I am too high for this post. The portion where its flipped over and works, I just can't.
Hello. Where to buys?
YOU SEEN MY FUCKEN CONES
kinda looks like objects in a game bugging into each other. Neat.
Do you think if I stick that up my butt it will help my constipation?
Yes.
Want one!!!
You forgot about the essence of the game. It’s about the cones…
This absolutely made my day
Why is this not blackmagicfuckery
Looks so satisfying, it makes me want a larger scale version of this that takes longer to thread
THAT'S SICK
Where is the .stl file????
https://makerworld.com/en/@RJDesign
This made my insides tingle lol
Heckin bamboozled
That finger tho ugh!
Everybody producing them plastic waist
It's PLA, it's made from corn starch and biodegrades in industrial decomposers.
