Gallery here.

I echo what Bram and Soren have said - this is just too freekin cool. The best thing about this is that Lowell Spheres tend to be VERY strong, which makes this thing very easy to transport.

You need to make instructions! How about this, if you make instructions, I will make sure there are a bunch of these at fest this year!

Lenny - here’s the DAT file for the corridors. The rest may take a little more time, but I’ll keep you posted.

Thanks!

All you have to do for the sphere is the bottom/top, and then one smooth side and one corridor side to the sphere - I think that would let me fill in the rest.

That’s not quite how it works - the sphere is made up of a top and bottom, then two pairs of different shaped sides. One shape is square, the other has overlapping ends.

All four sides have rectangular openings and corridor attachment points.

There’s a separate cap piece that covers the openings, and also fits flush to complete the spherical surface. You don’t have to dismantle the sphere to reconfigure it; just remove the covers.

I’ve done the base, square sides and caps; just the top and overlapping sides to do now.
