Hi iMaterialise fans,
Soma Pipedream The Third is a variation to Soma Pipedream Too. Rick Eason found a unique design that has two assemblies, of which only one can be disassembled. Moreover, Rick also suggested these hermaphroditic connections, eliminating the need of separate connector pieces. The puzzle is a lot of fun to solve, trying to make a (Soma) cube. It is even more fun to make free-space assemblies of these pieces. Rick Eason computed that there exist a total of 35 assemblies where all pipes are connected without any open ends. This version has thin pipes, so one can see the whole structure in one view.
