Square Wheels

from thingiverse

Remember? Everything comes true in the end. Technology never dies, and there’s this set of early industrial age skills that we’re learning again, not because we have to, but because it’s fun, and you can do cool stuff with them.

Geo mag gears – these are pretty cool because the gears don’t touch each other.

Once again there’s a whole subculture of people who have taken these simple magnetic toys, and pushed them way beyond what they were originally intended to do.

The value of these things… is also to do with what you can inspire other people to do… in fact if you deliberately emasculate the possibility of this with patents and copyrights, then your offering is kindof dead.
