Chalcraft Torus

Chalcraft Torus

A torus made from pieces that are the union of cubes. 5 pairs are needed to build the torus.

Construction

Print five pairs to construct the torus.

Overlay mirror image pieces and then insert the final cube to lock into place.

The pattern will wrap around into a torus.

I needed to use needle nose pliers to squeeze the final locking cubes into place.

How I Designed This

I tried to recreate the shape built by Adam Chalcraft from a cubic toy.
