Description

A two-ball Newton's cradle that splits into separate pieces for easy printing: base, four posts, two top rails, two axles and two swinging ball pendulums. Both balls hang at rest, touching at the centre. The pendulum hubs ride freely on loose 3 mm axles.

Remix hooks

  • Pendulum length: 70 mm arm, 10 mm radius balls. Longer arms give a slower swing.
  • Joint clearance: pegs are 5.6 mm / 4 mm in 6.4 mm / 4.4 mm pockets. Tighten or loosen for your printer.
  • Axle fit: 3 mm axle in a 3.8 mm hub bore and 3.4 mm rail holes.
  • Frame height: the pivot sits 110 mm above the base on a 140 x 50 mm plate.
  • Pairs with: a printed or drawn angle scale or height ruler placed beside the frame, for mass and height experiments.
  • Variants: add more pendulums by adding axle positions along the rails.

Miniature Pop-Up Toaster, 70x46x45 mm

Miniature Pop-Up Toaster, 70x46x45 mm

A small mechanical toaster printed as separate parts: body, toast carriage, two toast slices and a side lever. Pressing the lever handle down raises the carriage and pops both slices up out of the slots. No springs are used. Lowering the lever pulls the toast back down. How it works The lever pivots on a pin moulded into the right side wall. A peg on the lever passes through an arc slot in the wall into a horizontal slot in the carriage side plate. The peg's travel lifts the carriage about 14 mm. The ends of the arc slot are the up and down stops. Two floor blocks inside the body act as backup low stops. Each toast slice has a tenon that locates in a pocket on its carriage tray. Specs Body: 70 x 46 x 45 mm, open bottom. Print it upside down with the top plate on the bed. Overall assembled size: about 76 W x 52 D x 60 H mm with the toast raised. Carriage: 1 mm side clearance to the walls. Slice tenon clearance 0.3 mm per side. Slots: 27 x 7 mm for slices 25.5 x 5 mm. Print settings: PLA, 0.2 mm layers, 3 walls, 10-12% infill. No supports are needed. Estimated filament: roughly 35-45 g. This is below the 50-60 g target, so walls can be thickened if more weight is wanted. Assembly Slide the carriage into the body through the open bottom. Slice tenons face up. Press the lever hub onto the pivot pin, feeding the peg through the arc slot into the carriage slot. Add a dab of glue to the pin head if the snap fit is loose. Drop the slices into the slots.
