The Quasicrystalline Spin Network (QSN) is an extremely hard object to 3D-print, especially on a fully homemade 3D printer.

Russ Gries and Ray Aschheim, two research scientists at Quantum Gravity Research, tell us about the process of creating the virtual 3D model using Mathematica and then creating the 3D-printed physical object.

Quantum Gravity Research is a Los Angeles-based, theoretical physics research organization founded by Klee Irwin. For more information, go to http://www.quantumgravityresearch.org/.
