Description

A 180mm rigid forearm cuff designed around a continuous, self-supporting gothic tracery pattern. The interlocking pointed arches and diagonal cross-cuts mimic the organic load-paths of topology optimization while keeping a distinctly high-fantasy arcane aesthetic. It features a 70-degree slip gap at the back, thick structural armor bands, and rounded comfort edges.

Remix hooks

  • Dimensions: Currently scaled for an average arm (35mm inner radius at the wrist, 48mm inner radius near the elbow). To resize it for a different wearer, adjust the wrist_r and forearm_r base variables.
  • Flexibility: The 4mm wall thickness makes this a rigid piece. If you want it to flex open over the wrist rather than sliding on, drop wall_thickness to 2mm and print in PETG.
  • Tracery density: The lattice overlaps heavily to create the branching web. Scaling the width and height of the pointed_cut calls will tighten or open up the negative space.
  • Supportless: The vesica piscis (pointed arch) cutouts are radially oriented and all internal angles exceed 45 degrees, meaning this prints straight up from the wrist with zero supports.

Wall-Mounted Running Medal Holder

Wall-Mounted Running Medal Holder

What it's for A wall-mounted rack for displaying running medals. Each ribbon slides onto one of eleven angled prongs that project from a flat backboard, so medals hang in a neat row and stay visible instead of ending up in a drawer. The prongs tilt up and finish in a ball tip, which holds the strap in place once it is looped on. The backboard is left plain above the prongs, giving the row of medals a clean edge to hang against and keeping the silhouette simple to print. The front face is completely smooth — the hanging slots are cut only into the back, so no holes or screw heads show through the display side. Dimensions Backboard: 300 mm wide × 60 mm tall × 10 mm deep Medal prongs: 11 prongs at 25 mm spacing, each reaching 30 mm out from the backboard at a 15° upward tilt, with ball tips Hanging slots: two keyhole pockets cut 6 mm into the back, 200 mm apart, leaving 4 mm of solid material at the front Prong spacing is the number worth checking against your own medals — wide straps need more room between prongs, and the spacing can be opened up if yours run thick. Roughly 10 to 15 medals fit across the 300 mm board. Print notes Prints as one piece; no assembly required. Lay the backboard flat on the plate so the prongs build up in front of it. The tilt keeps them self-supporting, so no supports are needed. Because the slots are stopped short of the front, the screw heads sit recessed in the back rather than passing through the board. Two wall screws 200 mm apart carry the holder. Remix ideas Widen the backboard to 400 or 500 mm and add prongs for a larger collection. Add a second row of prongs below the first to stagger medals in two tiers. Add a raised name plate or a finish-line banner along the plain top edge using the same prong layout. Materials Rigid filament is the better choice here; the prongs carry real weight and a soft or flexible material will let them droop.
