A STEM Building Block System

3D-printed building blocks that turn curious kids into early engineers and architects.

X-Blocks

X-BLOCK I

$10

Uses: X-BLOCK I offers a building block receiver X-BLOCK II and the other blocks can attach to. Through 6 connecting faces and 2 different types of connections, X-BLOCK I is the first building block of your foundation.

Includes: 3D print files for the X-BLOCK I, licensed for noncommercial 3D printing by a single household or classroom.

X-BLOCK II

$10

Uses: X-BLOCK II offers building-block extensions other X-BLOCKS attach to. Offering the same 6 connecting faces but the male side of one connection, X-BLOCK II is the building block needed to expand on your creation.

Includes: 3D print files for the X-BLOCK II, licensed for noncommercial 3D printing by a single household or classroom.

X-BLOCK 45

$10

Uses: The X-BLOCK 45 is a 45-degree connector block that lets you create angled supports and more complex structures when combined with other X-BLOCKS. With 3 connecting faces and 2 compatible connection types, it’s ideal for building ramps, roofs, and diagonal bracing in advanced designs.

Includes: 3D print files for the X-BLOCK 45, licensed for noncommercial 3D printing by a single household or classroom.

X-Blocks under development

Hex-Block

$10

Uses: HEX-BLOCK offers a cyclical connection through 6 connecting faces for X-BLOCKS and upcoming blocks to anchor to as an axle or other centrifugal connection.

Includes 3D print files to HEX-BLOCK for one household or classroom for noncommercial 3D printing.

X-PLAne

$10

Uses: X-PLANE creates an interlocking 4.5″ horizontal plane that can be used for flat surfaces such as roads, countertops, or roof and wall tiles.

Includes 3D print files to X-PLANE for one household or classroom for noncommercial 3D printing.

X-Shelf

$10

Uses: X-SHELF is a 4.5″ wide corner plane with receiver connections for X-BLOCKS to anchor to for support when bridging gaps.

Includes 3D print files to X-SHELF for one household or classroom for noncommercial 3D printing.

X-WALL

$10

Uses: X-WALL is a 6″ x 1″ x 6.5″ block can be used for structural wall panels, shelf stands, or roof tiles. Using the sliding top and bottom connectors, large horizontal, vertical, or angled expanses can be bridged.

Includes 3D print files to X-WALL for one household or classroom for noncommercial 3D printing.

X-LIFT

$10

Uses: X-LIFT is a 4.5″ wide X-BLOCK with sliding top and bottom connections for X-BLOCKS to anchor to. X-LIFT provides wider side support at the standard X-BLOCK lift height.

Includes 3D print files to X-LIFT for one household or classroom for noncommercial 3D printing.
