Incredible Rolling Objects which aren't Spheres!

Discover the beauty of motion with this 3D-printable oloid model, an object that captivates with its smooth, rolling movement. 

Designed for playful exploration and hands-on education, the oloid demonstrates fascinating principles of geometry and physics. Its unique shape ensures that its entire surface contacts the ground as it rolls, offering a practical way to understand concepts such as surface area and the motion of the center of mass.

The oloid’s rolling motion is deeply tied to its center of mass, which follows a smooth, sinusoidal trajectory. This characteristic allows for engaging experiments and games, making it ideal for sparking curiosity in students and enthusiasts alike. 
Whether used in classrooms or at home, this model transforms learning into an interactive and entertaining experience.

Assembly Instructions
 

Identify Components: Locate the main oloid body and the insertable peg or component (as seen in the images). Align the Parts: Ensure the peg is oriented correctly with the slot on the main oloid body. The shapes should align naturally for a snug fit. Insert the Peg: Carefully slide the peg into the slot. Apply gentle pressure to avoid damaging the model. The peg should fit tightly into place. Test Stability: Once assembled, gently roll the oloid on a flat surface to confirm proper alignment and secure assembly. Enjoy!: Your oloid is now ready for play, exploration, and educational experiments.
