01 / Digital studies
The clamp takes shape in CAD
The original CAD study established the connector geometry at the center of the system, shown here with its newer physical iteration.
Project log
Built one milestone at a time.
A living record of HexaClamp—from the first digital studies to working parts and full-size structures.
02 / Physical prototype
The first parts leave the screen
The initial physical pieces made it possible to inspect the fit, spacing, and central fastening concept by hand.
03 / First full structure
First design assembled
A useless example, to let imaginations play.
04 / New iteration
HexaClamp v2
For now we went ahead with the center piece being 3d printed. This way it is easier than countersinking solid metal. Contrary the plastic-casing takes some patience to fit the Nuts and ain't as durable.
