3D PRINTING

Toilet Roll Construction Toys

I'm sure I'm not the only one with a large supply of hoarded toilet roll tubes in a scrap box somewhere waiting for the day when they might 'come in handy'.

These 3D printed connectors transform cardboard tubes into modular construction toys to be assembled into forts, robots or cities to be destroyed monster-style.

There are 8 connectors and one end piece. By combining these, it should be possible to make any rectangular structure.

The end pieces are the same distance from the centre of the connector in every configuration, meaning that structures built with them will be modular and always able to connect in a neat grid.

Your only limit is your imagination (and square corners)!
