  New Mathematical Lego Sculptures
 
I have added a small collection of mathematical lego sculptures to my web pages. Check out (URL) include mobius bands, a coupe of knots and some minimal surfaces. All (reasonably constructive) comments gratefully received... Andrew (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.build) !!

(...) i thought i was pretty smart when i figured out how to make triangles, circles and spheres (well, sort of anyway), until i discovered lugnet. :) are you going to share the DAT files or your code? (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New Mathematical Lego Sculptures
 
(...) The DAT files aren't very much use unless you're determined, since they build everything out of 1x1x1 bricks, which don't hold together too well ;-) Another consequence is that the DAT files get pretty big. If there's reasonable interest I'll (...) (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.build)
