3 different designs, 4 different 3D Printing techniques. 

I started to play with this Icosahedron Ring Design first time on a Desktop Makerbot Replicator ( 1st generation ) in summer of 2012. I designed the body specifically thinking about the 3D printing technique and material. The chunky 2 different designs are created for the material and to create a new shape to a ring. The lightness of the material allows the form and it is quite comfortable to wear. 

I've decided to experiment with metal version as well. This time because of the weight of the material I decided to cut the ring in size, almost giving it a sliced look. 

The professional SLA, SLS prints are done by Shapeways. I've been quite satisfied with the metal materials. I've even made a Wax 3D print of it to cast it myself.
