These 3D printed mobiles are the first fully 3D printed ones in the world and the result of a collaboration between Marco Mahler from Portland, Oregon, USA, a kinetic sculptor specializing in mobiles, and Henry Segerman, a research fellow in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Melbourne, Australia.
The mobiles come out of a 3D-printer completely assembled. The balance points for these mobiles were calculated to 1/1000th of a millimeter (1/25360th of an inch). The models for some of these mobiles were drawn up 'by hand,' others were created utilizing scripts.
