Michiel Cornelissen's Zesch Interlocking Coasters

By Rain Noe - July 12, 2012

in Digital Fabrication

Digital manufacturing maven Michiel Cornelissen is at it again. At first blush his latest design, Zesch, appears to be the world's worst ninja throwing star; in fact it's a cool set of coasters that interlock, allowing you to use them as trivets for hot things larger than a highball.

Cornelissen generated the shape using Grasshopper, a graphical algorithm editing program for Rhino users, then had them cut from sheets of bamboo via a laser-cutting machine that may or may not have been operated by a ninja. A set of 14 will run you about 70 bucks, and they've just gone live on his site today.
