3D kaleidoscope with infinity mirror effect

[@BooBaddyBig]

This creates what is essentially a type of large scale hyperbolic geometry, that's why it's so cool looking.

[@johnnythefilmmaker]

I want an infinity room for less than $50... here you go!

Im going to try this putting marbles on a couple of the vertices to see about introducing chaos. Thank you for posting the template

[@diydesigner5766]

Interesting thought!

[@danielw.4876]

Also, a good 3D shape to do this for would be a rhombic dodecahedron since that shape tessellates 3D space!

[@diydesigner5766]

Had to look that up but looks very interesting indeed! are you going to make one? :P

... YES - its Pentaquark with MIRRORS in 5 Corners - thats structure of universe - SUPER GALANT GALAXY.

Thanks, will do!

[@patrickgoethals3235]

do you cut the mirrors yourself? or buy this 5 angular somewhere online. (I can't find this form of mirrors anywhere on line) thx 4 the vid

[@NoMusicTheory]

put colored plastic over the holes and hit it with a flash light. nova scope effects.

[@becre8tive199]

@@MarcelaHernandez-vf6de and @DIY Designer I just made my first 3D Kaleidoscope using the instructions from this video and I added lights. Here is a link to photos since I cannot post any photos here.photos.app.goo.gl/bpfCdh7CzzhTTcAo9 Also, I tried hot gluing the tiles together, but it proved to be a hot mess. I am also going to try to use some stained glass soldering techniques and printing a 3D scaffolding. As I mentioned above, I am also going to try to bevel the edges of the mirror so that the pieces can fit together with a shared edge. I will post if there is any interest. ~Kelly @socialcraftingcollective

[@briangrussing9327]

Most creative & brilliant DIY I can remember seeing. It brings back memories of growing up! May i ask how large the 2nd was/is? & did you go with 3mm again? Thanks!!!

[@diydesigner5766]

thank you so much! i believe the bigger version was 2 times / 3 times as big and also made of acrylic mirror. Later i realised that PS mirror 2mm would have been better ( i used that stuff with my kaleidoscope video) because the mirror is on the top surface and not under the acrylic :)

[@СашкаБелый-ч6м]

@DIY Designer What is “PS mirror”? Acrylic mirrors at Aliexpress have reflection film at front side. Acrylic mirrors at your Niderland friends (snijlab) have reflection on back side.

Hi DIY Designer, Thank you for this amazingly cool Kaleidoscope!! I have searched high and low, every nook and corner of internet for the mirrors.
