About this model
Designed something from a 3d Printing Academy video show casing a slit thread fastener concept, its super simple and thought about making it about a way to construct a geodesic dome, so only went as far to the icosahedron shape. I originally made it with a simple generated thread on fusion 360 but realize I needed to label each panel with its correct side/direction which made it many times longer to assemble, also the thread type I went with was too fine of a feature to go with for printing, so I decided to make a new one that solve the labeling and thread issues. Now it should thread together no matter what piece you start with, you'll initially will need to take one cap and thread 5 of the panels together, just use your finger to push them to alignment and a few turns to get them level, …
