Half Menger Cube

Yesterday's I printed a half Menger cube by owens, using the order three model. It was estimated to take 3:30 hours, and took more like 5. Usually the estimates are pretty accurate, but I suspect the fractal nature causes misestimation.








Possible revisions: This half Menger cube particularly interesting because of the beautiful cross section on the inside piece. Unfortunately, it is very hard to see in the white material. Next time I will either try printing in a different color, printing just the flat cross section to add on, or printing the other half to see if that angle shows better.
