Meissner bodies of constant width
Against all instincts, a sphere is not the only geometric shape that has a constant diameter. There are an infinite amount of others, of which the Meissner Tetrahedron is the coolest.
This set contains 4 shapes, each different, but with the same constant width of 35mm:
- Meissner Tetrahedron
- Revolved Reuleaux Triangle
- Revolved Reuleaux Pentagon
- Revolved Reuleaux Heptagon
I know this isn't the first collection on Thingiverse, but I CAD'ed them myself, hence no credits to others. Well, okay, credits to Reuleaux and Meissner!
