I have a 3D printer and explore Thingiverse for useful items that I can print. One very interesting item is a labyrinth maze where I have to blindly manipulate through a maze to open a box. The maze is only apparent after the box is open.
However, I was not happy with simply printing a maze. I like to customize the maze and incorporate it into a woodturning project. It took me a little while and a lot of experimenting to write Java software to design the maze, write OpenScad code to render the 3D object, and print it on my Prusa 3D printer. That was only the "soft" part. Then, for this project prepare 7 segmented rings of 8 segments each for the turning part of the project.
The labyrinth maze is about three inches diameter and five inches tall finished with shellac friction polish. The principal wood is cherry; the accent wood is walnut.
Enjoy!
